European Union countries are interested in the possibility of investing in drone production in Ukraine. In particular, Bundestag member Roderich Kiesewetter noted that Ukrainians possess impressive technological development and know-how that is beneficial for all European countries. Therefore, in his opinion, supporting Ukrainian drone production is reasonable and important for the future.
'Since none of the European countries have the technological development and know-how that Ukrainians possess, it is in our interest to support production and developments in Ukraine so that we can utilize Ukrainian know-how and production capacities when necessary,' he emphasized.
Moreover, Kiesewetter considers it reasonable to transition Ukrainian know-how and production capacities for the creation of drones and other weaponry. He also emphasizes the importance of unmanned systems in military operations, calling for an expansion of missile production, which is a key element of defense.
Conclusion
The European interest in drone production in Ukraine indicates recognition of the country's technological potential and its capabilities in the defense sector. Investments could contribute not only to the development of Ukrainian production but also to the creation of a strategic partnership between the EU and Ukraine in military technology. The emphasis on the importance of unmanned systems in warfare highlights the significance of developing this sector for ensuring national and international security.
