First Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Lieutenant General Ivan Gavrilyuk, held negotiations with the delegation of the Kingdom of Norway, discussing the situation at the front, the needs of the Ukrainian air defense and prospects for cooperation in the production of weapons. The Norwegian side assured additional support. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense on Thursday, December 5.
