Zelensky, Merz seal 10 new agreements to boost Ukraine-Germany cooperation
He shared this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.
“Today’s meeting with Friedrich Merz was special and substantive. We focused specifically on how to make our efforts even more active and stronger. Before the bilateral talks, we saw seven types of drones produced at our joint enterprises – six aerial and one ground-based. This is a significant result of our cooperation, and it is important that there will be more. Today, we have new agreements on cooperation – ten in total – across the most important areas,” Zelensky said.
He noted that Germany is a key leader in supporting Ukraine and ranks number one in assistance for its defense.
“Importantly, Germany remains strong, remains committed, and is truly capable of defending the interests of Europe and Europeans,” the Ukrainian President emphasized.
As previously reported by Ukrinform, on April 14, Ukraine and Germany signed two cooperation documents as part of intergovernmental consultations. These include an agreement between the German Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, as well as a declaration of intent on supporting industrial recovery and resilience between Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development and Ukraine’s Ministry for Economy, Environment, and Agriculture.
