He added that the parties focused on key areas of cooperation:

- The development of industrial cooperation between Ukraine and the Czech Republic
Umerov added that countries are launching common projects that will strengthen the Ukrainian military:
“One of them is the production of rifles within the Danish financing model. Some of these weapons are already manufactured in the Czech Republic, and for the other, we are talking about the localization of production in Ukraine. ”
The Danish Model provides for direct financing of Ukrainian defense enterprises in other countries. In January, Prime Minister Denis Shmigal reported that in 2025 Ukraine expects to raise more than $ 1 billion under this initiative.
