Ukraine and France discussed a new model of cooperation. Namely, the creation of joint Ukrainian-French defense production facilities, reveals Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
“This is being worked out at the level of the defense ministries. The Danish model is already working, when the governments of partner countries attract investment in weapons production, and we consider the new French model as an opportunity to attract investment in the creation of new production facilities,” Zelenskyy explained.
He noted that Ukraine is counting on this result.
“This is a personal task for the Minister of Defense, for the Ministry of Strategic Industries to ensure that all our agreements are fulfilled,” he concluded.
Earlier this week, the President flew to France to meet with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron.
Zelenskyy presented Macron with a plan for Ukraine's victory and announced a peace summit in November.
