The Ministry encourages international partners to invest in the Ukrainian defense industry and purchase defense goods for the needs of the Ukrainian defense forces from Ukrainian manufacturers.

As of April 2024, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has existing contracts for the purchase of weapons and military equipment in the amount of 582.2 billion hryvnias. About 50% of them were completed by Ukrainian manufacturers. The Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Yuriy Dzhigir, announced this on Tuesday, April 23, the press service of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reports.

It is reported that we are talking about agreements concluded in different years, which are in a state of implementation with different completion dates. For some of them, 254 billion hryvnias are provided for payment in 2024.

Dzhigir noted that Ukraine continues to receive significant international military assistance from partner states, thanks to which it is able to fight the enemy, but an important aspect is attracting investments to develop its own capabilities of domestic defense sector.

“We encourage international partners to invest in the Ukrainian defense industry and buy defense goods for the needs of the Ukrainian Defense Forces from Ukrainian manufacturers as a driver of the Ukrainian economy”, said the deputy minister.

Earlier it was reported that a plant of the German company Quantum-Systems GmbH for the production of drones was opened in Ukraine. There they will assemble 1,000 drones a year and they will also make spare parts.
