PRESS RELEASE : Ukraine is interested in exchanging experience with EU and NATO countries in the field of modern armaments and technologies – Volodymyr Zelenskyy

The press release issued by the President of Ukraine on 8 May 2022.

Ukraine would like to receive from the Allies not only samples of Soviet weapons, but also modern military equipment, weapons and technology. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a conversation with media representatives following the negotiations with Prime Minister of Croatia Andrej Plenković in Kyiv.

“Weapons must be powerful and modern, not only Soviet, although we are grateful for everything. We need technology. We need knowledge. We would like to gain this experience,” the President said.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted that Ukraine has demonstrated success in the field of missile technology and is ready to share its experience. At the same time, it is interested in gaining access to European modern technologies in other spheres.

“So far we do not have the same access as every European or NATO member state has. We do not have such opportunities yet. But I think we will get them,” the President of Ukraine summed up.
