Drone Coalition

Allied countries have formed a drone coalition to support Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression. A key step in this process was the creation of the UAV Coalition. This initiative includes the purchase and transfer of drones to Ukraine to strengthen its defense.

Currently, the International Drone Coalition consists of 15 countries - Latvia, Ukraine, Australia, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Recently, Danish Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen signed an agreement on international cooperation in the field of drones.

In addition, Sweden is joining the International Drone Coalition.
