«The war has shown the significant impact of advanced technologies. For example, drones have significantly changed the course of the war. We will continue to support Ukraine by supplying advanced weapons systems. We would also like to collaborate with innovative Ukrainian companies in the development of defense technologies,» said Minister of Economy and Innovation A. Armonaite.
According to the Ministry, the Minister familiarized Ukrainian companies with Lithuania’s growing defense industry. Lithuania develops advanced defense solutions — from laser technologies to electronic warfare. Technologies developed in Lithuania are also successfully used on the battlefield in Ukraine and exported to other NATO countries.
The Minister also presented favorable conditions for the opening of defense enterprises in Lithuania by partner countries, including Ukraine.
«Ukrainian manufacturers are also interested in the opportunity to develop part of their operations from Lithuania, as they will have the opportunity to safely produce their products and export them to NATO countries,» said the Minister.
