Ukraine and Latvia are working to increase drone production, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has said.
During a joint press conference in Kyiv with Latvian Foreign Minister Baiba Braže, Kuleba noted the great potential of Ukrainian and Latvian companies to increase production of attack UAVs.
“I am very grateful to Latvia for its leadership in the Drone Coalition. We are now working together to increase this production – we need more drones. I believe that Ukrainian and Latvian companies can really do a lot in this direction,” he said.
The minister also noted Latvia’s decision to join the Czech initiative to purchase artillery shells and noted that the production of shells was one of the central issues during the bilateral talks.
Kuleba also thanked Braža for making her first visit in her new position to Ukraine, which is a sign of special respect for Ukraine and its defenders.
