Ukraine and France will collaborate on establishing joint defense production facilities, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on Oct. 12.
The Ukrainian leader emphasized the importance of expanding the industrial base for the production of drones, ammunition, and military equipment, which exceeds the financial capabilities of the state.
“Our industrial capacity allows us to produce far more drones, more shells, and military equipment than our country’s financial capabilities allow,” Zelenskyy said.
“But at the same time, there are many partners who, for objective reasons, cannot help with arms supplies – they do not have their own weapons, but they can help us with financing.”
The ministries of Ukraine and France are currently discussing a new model of cooperation—the creation of joint Ukrainian-French production facilities.
