President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Prime Minister of the Netherlands Rob Jetten signed a Joint Statement on the start of work on a Drone Deal and agreed on joint drone production
The Drone Deal between Ukraine and the Netherlands is a strategic initiative that provides for the joint development and production of drones, missiles, electronic warfare systems, and other defense technologies.
The cooperation will also cover agreed investments in defense infrastructure, research, innovation, and systematic exchange of operational experience that Ukraine has gained during the fight against Russian aggression. The leaders tasked their teams with working out all the details.
From now on, Ukraine and the Netherlands are moving from sustained support to greater integration in the field of defense production, technology, and long-term capacity development.
The countries will cooperate to strengthen defense-industrial potential and increase production to respond to security challenges. This cooperation should grow into a long-term defense-industrial partnership. Also, in the presence of the president and prime minister, a license agreement was signed, which initiates joint drone production
