Ukraine signs agreements with Czech Republic on ammunition plant and production of assault rifles
Kyiv • UNN
Ukraine and the Czech Republic sign agreements on the construction of a new cartridge factory in Ukraine and the production of Colt CZ Group assault rifles by a Czech company in Ukraine.
Ukraine has signed agreements with the Czech Republic to build a new cartridge factory in Ukraine and to produce assault rifles from Colt CZ Group. This was announced by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal during a joint press conference with Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala, UNN correspondent reports.
"The defense industry and arms production is one of the main sectors of our cooperation. With Prime Minister Fiala, we discussed the supply of new types of weapons to the Ukrainian army, training and rehabilitation of the Ukrainian military, and new joint projects in the military-industrial complex," Shmyhal said.
He said that two important agreements had been signed, among other deals in the defense industry.
"A new cartridge factory will be built in Ukraine, an agreement has been signed between Sellier & Bellot and Ukroboronservice. This is important to supply our army now. The second agreement is the production of Colt CZ Group assault rifles in Ukraine. This is an agreement between Ceska Zbrojovka and the relevant Ukrainian enterprise," Shmyhal said.
