Addendum

Minister of Economy of Ukraine, the Government is comprehensively addressing the task of accelerating the clearance of mines from the territory of Ukraine.

We are working in all the identified areas. In March, we approved a procedure for compensating farmers who will order humanitarian land demining services. This is an important step towards launching the humanitarian demining market. We have signed an agreement with Palantir to use advanced big data analysis and artificial intelligence to help us organize survey and demining work more efficiently. We are actively working on the implementation of domestic developments and strengthening the capabilities of operators by purchasing Ukrainian machinery and equipment

- said Yulia Svyrydenko.

According to her, in March, the number of units conducting  humanitarian or operational demining increased, as well as the number of demining vehicles involved in the work.
