“ The outgoing Czech government has announced that the Czech Republic will build and present a modern satellite to Ukraine as a sign of its support. Source: Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic in the X social network, “European Truth” writes. Details: As stated in the message, the Czech Republic will build and deliver to Ukraine a modern Earth observation satellite capable of collecting data regardless of weather conditions and daylight. “This demonstrates not only the technological excellence of Czech companies in one of the most demanding industries, but also our constant support for Ukraine,” the Czech ministry said, without revealing further details. The Ministry of Transport of the Czech Republic clarified that the satellite project for Ukraine will be launched in the coming months, and the launch of the satellite is expected within a year. The Czech Republic will be the first country to provide Ukraine with this type of aid. Czech companies with experience in space technologies, in particular in the construction of small satellites, will participate in the development and construction of the satellite. The satellite will be equipped with technology that combines a radar imaging system (SAR), optical and radiation detection and radio frequency spectrum monitoring in several areas, which will allow observation of the Earth’s surface even at night and under degraded meteorological conditions. In the future, this satellite should be supplemented by other satellites to create a constellation, said the message of the Czech Ministry of Transport. The initiative is a continuation of the Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of Transport of the Czech Republic and the Ukrainian State Space Agency. The project is part of the government program of the Czech Republic for the restoration of Ukraine, which is implemented by the Ministry of Transport in cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Industry and Trade. “The gift of the satellite is a concrete expression of our solidarity and determination to help Ukraine in building its digital infrastructure and strengthening its operational sovereignty and stability. It is an investment in its future, and therefore in security and stability in Europe,” commented Foreign Minister Jan Lipavskyi. “The Czech Republic is demonstrating that it is capable of developing and delivering cutting-edge technologies that have a real impact, whether in the field of security, infrastructure restoration or public protection. We believe that this mission will help Ukraine strengthen its capabilities and at the same time contribute to our cooperation in the field of space technology,” said the Minister of Transport of the Czech Republic, Martin Kupka. It will be recalled that the populist party ANO won the recent parliamentary elections in the Czech Republic. Its leader Andrey Babish previously promised to cancel the “missile initiative” for Ukraine. At the same time, he recently softened his rhetoric regarding the initiative. He also said that he is not against the supply of Czech weapons to Ukraine, and not at the expense of the budget. The other day, Babish called on the outgoing government not to make any more important decisions.”, — write: www.pravda.com.ua
