The Ministry of Economy articulated the need to focus on retraining programs for Ukrainians in professions with maximum demand. In particular, it is about women who can master ‘men’ professions.
Ukraine and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development have started a dialogue regarding the development and implementation of business support programs for the recovery of the energy sector and retraining of workers for professions that are more needed in the labor market.
During the meeting with the President of the EBRD, Odile Renaud-Basso, the Minister of Economy, Yulia Svyrydenko, noted that there are currently two critically important challenges for the Ukrainian economy: energy problems and lack of labor force.
Another important challenge for the economy is the conscription of specialists to the ranks of the Armed Forces.
‘We now need to pay more attention to retraining programs for Ukrainians in professions that are in maximum demand. First of all, we are talking about women who are already mastering once purely ‘men’ professions,’ Svyrycenko explained.
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.
