You're reading: Ukraine may be involved in NATO intellectual defense project

CHICAGO - Ukraine is studying a possibility of involvement in intellectual defense projects, Ukrainian ambassador to NATO Ihor Dolhov has said.

"I want to say at once that the Ukrainian defense industry is well-known to the world, is known to NATO member-countries and the first consultations have been held to involve our country in these intellectual defense projects. The interest in our defense sector is great, primarily among our neighbors – members of the Visegrad Four," he told Ukrainian journalists on May 20 in Chicago where the 25th NATO summit was held.

Dolhov said that so far this involvement amounts to information exchanges at the expert level. In particular, experts want to know what is being developed in NATO countries and what interests Ukraine, he said.
