Slovakia has agreed to a new military support package for Ukraine, which includes engineering equipment and mine countermeasures. It will be the 14th defense assistance package.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was stated by Defense Minister Robert Kaliniak during the International Defense Industry Forum DFNC3 in Kyiv, whose words are quoted by Interfax-Ukraine<\/a> .<\/p>\n

“Together with Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, we have just signed a memorandum on the 14th support package, which provides for Slovakia to provide engineering and mine action assistance to Ukraine,” Kaliniak noted.<\/p>\n

According to him, the current visit to Kyiv is aimed at expanding defense cooperation between the countries. Slovakia plans to jointly develop new projects in the field of security and defense with Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The minister emphasized that since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion, the capabilities of the Slovak defense industry have increased manifold.<\/p>\n

“We have increased the production of artillery ammunition 15 times and indirect fire systems three times. We completed a joint project with Denmark to supply 16 Zuzana howitzers just a few weeks ago,” Kaliniak said.<\/p>\n

Defense cooperation was one of the key topics of a recent meeting between Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and is planned to be further explored during the upcoming fourth intergovernmental session.<\/p>\n

It was previously reported that Slovakia has declared its readiness to join the system of security guarantees for Ukraine<\/a> , providing logistical support to European forces, but has no intention of deploying its own military contingent.<\/p>\n

Despite Prime Minister Robert Fico’s promise not to transfer “a single bullet” to Ukraine, Slovak weapons continue to arrive in Ukraine from the country’s private companies<\/a> .<\/p>\n
