Zelensky discusses Ukraine’s reconstruction, joint defense projects with Danish Minister of Industry

The President shared the update on Facebook, Ukrinform reports.

“Today, the minister and I discussed the continuation of our defense cooperation, the participation of Danish companies in Ukraine’s reconstruction, and the development of joint projects. The Danish model has helped boost the production of our drones and missiles, ensuring a real contribution to our resilience. Thank you, Denmark. We look forward to continuing such productive relations,” Zelensky said.

The President also accepted the letters of credence from the new Danish Ambassador to Ukraine, Thomas Lund-Sørensen, and congratulated him on the start of his diplomatic mission.

Zelensky recalled his recent visit to Copenhagen, expressing gratitude to Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, the Danish government, and the Danish people for their unwavering support for Ukraine since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.

As reported, last year, the Ukrainian Armed Forces received nearly EUR 538 million worth of weapons through the Danish model of defense industry support. This model involves direct government funding of Ukrainian defense enterprises by other countries, with Denmark being the first to invest in Ukraine’s defense industry.
