According to Umerov, the key topic of the meeting was the direction of investments in joint defense projects and strengthening the air defense of Ukraine.
“A particularly important area is the production of long-range drones. We discussed in detail how to make this process as efficient as possible and analyzed the best mechanisms for direct financing. We also considered the possibility of using revenues from frozen Russian assets to support the production of spare parts for drones. This could become an effective tool for increasing Ukraine's defense capabilities,” the Ukrainian minister emphasized.
Another important topic of the talks was strengthening Ukraine's air defense.
“The Netherlands will soon provide assistance that will significantly strengthen our defense of the sky,” Umerov said.
- Germany will soon provide Ukraine with additional guided missiles for Iris-T air defense systems.
