It is noted that an official cooperation agreement between Denmark and Ukraine was signed in June, and the agreement on the purchase of Ukrainian-made artillery shells is the first implementation of this project.
A decision was made to allocate 1.2 billion Danish kroner from the Fund of Ukraine for the procurement of the Ukrainian defense industry.
The first batch of 18 Bohdan artillery systems funded by Denmark is expected to be delivered in the coming months.

This has obvious logistical advantages and at the same time contributes to the development of the defense industry in Ukraine. In this case, Ukrainian-made artillery shells play a key role as a pilot project
