First Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Sergiy Kyslytsya held a meeting with Permanent Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs Jeppe Tranholm-Mikkelsen.
Sergiy Kyslytsya thanked Denmark for its unwavering support for Ukraine and noted the strong consensus among all political parties regarding assistance to our country.
During the meeting, particular attention was paid to the development of the Build with Ukraine initiative, aimed at joint production of defense products, including in Denmark. The discussion also covered the implementation of joint projects, particularly in the field of unmanned systems production, as well as further steps to expand defense-industrial cooperation, which contributes to strengthening regional security.
The First Deputy Head of the Office of the President emphasized that Ukraine is interested in a long-term security partnership with Denmark in the format of the Drone Deal. Sergiy Kyslytsya spoke about the relevant agreements of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy not only with countries of the Middle East and the Gulf region, but also with several European states. Denmark has been providing significant assistance to Ukraine since the very beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion, including within the framework of the Danish model, and therefore our country is ready to build this cooperation for years to come.
The parties also exchanged views on the global situation, the negotiation process, joint efforts to achieve a dignified peace, increasing pressure on Russia, and coordination to advance Ukraine’s accession to the European Union.
