It is also advisable to involve veterans with combat experience who have been officially discharged from the Armed Forces in such missions. Such a step would allow strengthening interaction with partners for decades to come, without creating a shortage of personnel on the front lines, Omelyan emphasized.<\/p>\n<p> He gave the example of a Ukrainian company that was able to attract 50 million pounds of investment, which raised its valuation to a billion dollars. Such integration into Western defense technologies will allow the Ukrainian military-industrial complex to transform and gain access to military segments of production instead of commercial ones, the politician is convinced.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Is this an indicator? Yes, undoubtedly, this is an indicator. And there can be more such things, there should be more such companies. And their integration into Western defense, access to Western military technologies will give us even better efficiency,&#8221; Volodymyr Omelyan noted.<\/p>\n\t\t<aside class=\"shortcode-also\" data-title=\"Read also\" data-right>\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/en\/martyrs-over-dubai-and-kharkiv-what-are-the-risks-of-war-in-the-middle-east\/\">From Dubai to Kharkiv: A War That Could Reshape the World<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\n<p> On the eve, President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/ukraina-nadast-dopomohu-u-borotbi-z-shakhedamy-na-blyzkomu-skhodi\/\">the United States has asked Ukraine for help<\/a> in protecting against Shahed suicide drones in the Middle East.
