In the future, Ukraine and its partners plan to launch the production of armored vehicles on its territory, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal has said.
"In October, during a visit to Berlin, together with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, we launched cooperation between the Ukrainian defense industry and the German arms concern Rheinmetall," Shmyhal said at a government meeting on Tuesday.
