During a meeting with Estonian Defense Minister Hanno Pevkur on the sidelines of the JEF, Ukrainian Defense Minister Denys Shmyhal expressed his gratitude for the offer to allocate €3 million for the purchase and support of Starlink satellite communication systems.
As Shmyhal reported on social media, the ministers also discussed strengthening air defense, drone production, and the creation of joint defense enterprises.
“We appreciate Estonia’s participation in PURL. Ukraine is also ready to join the implementation of projects within SAFE, which will contribute to the mutual development of our defense industries,” Shmyhal said.
The ministers also discussed the training of Ukrainian soldiers as part of Operation Legio.
“I am grateful for Estonia’s offer to allocate €3 million for the purchase and support of Starlink satellite communication systems. We continue to insist on the confiscation of frozen Russian assets — the aggressor must pay.
I thank Estonia for its strong support for Ukrainians in this war,” Shmyhal emphasized.
