Ukraine set to transform into 'world's premier defense arsenal', Ukroboronprom chief declares
Ukraine is set to transform into a pivotal hub for global defense, testing, and refining some of the world's most advanced weaponry, Ukroboronprom CEO Herman Smetanin announced at the "Ukraine's European Path: Dialogues About the Future" event organized by NV on March 28.
"We're not just a testing ground; we're a place where military tech is perfected and updated," Smetanin said.
He emphasized Ukraine's ambition to be recognized as "an arsenal of the free world," moving beyond testing to enhance and expand the production and modernization of arms in line with contemporary and future demands.
"Ukraine is extending an offer to its allies to not only test their military innovations but also to tailor and enhance them for tomorrow's challenges," Smetanin added.
NV hosts the ‘Ukraine’s European Path:Dialogues About the Future’ event from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. EET on March 28.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
