Denmark and Ukraine have signed a memorandum of long-term cooperation, according to which Denmark will allocate 420 million euros to support the private sector and critical infrastructure in Ukraine.
40 million euros will go to support the restoration work in the Ukrainian private sector, and 380 million euros will be directed to the development of critical infrastructure and use of renewable energy.
Financing will be implemented through the Export Investment Fund of Denmark, which operates within the framework of the Danish-Ukrainian Fund. This fund is aimed at reducing financial risks for companies participating in the recovery process of Ukraine.
Part of the funds will be used to strengthen the Ukrainian energy system, which suffered from the Russian attacks. The memorandum also provides for the establishment of partnership meetings between the businesses of the two countries, strengthening of cooperation in the field of shipbuilding, development and restoration of the seaport infrastructure.
The document places special emphasis on the green transformation of the economy and the implementation of innovative solutions in the field of critical infrastructure, in which Denmark is a world leader.
Five armored vehicles “Kozak” have received a new mission – thanks to the support of Metinvest, they have been upgraded to full-fledged command and staff vehicles. These upgraded vehicles are now operating on the front line.
A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives. This is the new reality for Ukrainian forces, who have received enhanced protection thanks to the Metinvest project within “Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov”.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
