President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Tuesday that Ukraine had signed three more "drone deals" with Denmark, Estonia and the Netherlands, making available its expertise gained from more than four years of war with Russia.

Zelensky has travelled widely to promote the deals, particularly in the Middle East, where Gulf countries were forced this year to counter Iranian strikes.
