Ukraine and the Czech Republic have prepared six key joint production projects related to the manufacture of ammunition, weapons, as well as tank repair. The potential production of training aircraft is also on the table.

This was stated by the President of the Czech Republic, Petr Pavel, who spoke at a joint press conference with the presidents of Ukraine and Slovakia, Volodymyr Zelensky and Zuzana Chaputova, in Kyiv, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

"We have prepared six key joint production projects based on both Ukrainian and Czech companies... As for specific projects, they relate to the production of ammunition, small arms, tank repair, such as the T-62, as well as the potential production of training aircraft. For us, technology transfer and production are priorities so that this production can be partially or completely carried out on the territory of Ukraine," he said.
