Estonian Prime Minister Kristen Michal and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy have signed a new agreement aimed at expanding collaboration on drones, military technology and the defence industry, as European allies seek to draw more closely on Kyiv’s battlefield experience.
The agreement, signed on Tuesday on the sidelines of the NATO summit in Ankara, will deepen cooperation between the Estonian and Ukrainian defence industries, including the exchange of expertise in drone technology, cybersecurity, information technology and military innovation.
“Ukraine has developed one of the most competitive defence industries in the world” through its experience fighting Russia's invasion, Michal said, arguing that closer cooperation “will benefit our defence capability, the defence industry and Ukraine.”
