Ukraine expresses readiness to cooperate with Japan in the field of drone production, including the implementation of joint projects. This was stated by Minister of Foreign Affairs Andriy Sybiha in an interview with the Japanese agency Kyodo News, Ukrinform reports.
According to Sybiga, Ukraine has accumulated significant experience in using drones during the war with Russia and is ready to share its experiences with Japanese partners.
"We are now world leaders in the production of drones... We are ready to share our experience with Japan and cooperate in the production of, for example, drones. This will be mutually beneficial," said Minister Sybiha.
Shibiga separately noted that Japanese constitutional restrictions on arms exports would not be an obstacle to cooperation, as the intended drone models would be intended for agricultural purposes or reconnaissance.
The Minister also confirmed Ukraine's commitment to a transparent policy in the reconstruction process: countries that support Russian aggression will not participate in Ukrainian post-war projects. He called on the international community to stop purchasing Russian energy resources, emphasizing their contribution to financing the war.
Ukraine is developing cooperation in the field of drones with various countries. For example, it was recently reported that companies from Ukraine and Denmark have entered into a partnership to develop a low-cost drone interceptor based on artificial intelligence.
