Ukraine and Poland will further strengthen cooperation in the defence industry, in particular in the production of ammunition
The Ukrainian and Polish defence industries are stepping up integration processes under the auspices of their governments. The visit of a Polish delegation to Kyiv, led by Deputy Defence Minister Cezary Tomczyk, resulted in the signing of two agreements.
Here's What We Know
Poland's Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa (PGZ) has signed a memorandum of industrial cooperation with Ukroboronprom. The document was signed under the auspices of the Polish Ministry of Defence and the Ukrainian Ministry of Strategic Industries.

The second agreement envisages cooperation between the National Association of Ukrainian Defence Industries (NAUDI) and the Military Technical Institute of Armaments (WITU), which is engaged in research and development of ammunition.
