So, according to the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, the joint efforts of partners in cyberspace are yielding tremendous results, therefore, deepening practical cooperation between Ukraine and the Netherlands in countering cyber threats and repelling cyber attacks, in particular, from the Russian Federation, is extremely relevant and promising.
