Denys Shmyhal, the Prime Minister of Ukraine, shared the information on Telegram.

“Today, the Ukrainian Parliament approved the draft law on the ratification of the Framework Agreement between Ukraine and the United Kingdom on supporting the development of Ukraine's defense capabilities,” Shmyhal stated.

The agreement also provides funding for the establishment of repair bases for military equipment and other weapons, with some of these bases to be located in Ukraine. This will allow for a significant strengthening of the country's defense capabilities.

“We are grateful to the Ukrainian Parliament and the people of the United Kingdom for supporting us on the path to our victory,” the Prime Minister added.
