The ban on weapons export from Ukraine may be removed: Estonia needed drones

During martial law, there is a ban on weapons export. But if the cooperation is in the interests of Estonia and Ukraine, the ban will be lifted. The Estonian leadership was interested in buying drones from Ukraine for its own army. The Head of the Ministry of Defense Hanno Picur and the commander of the Defense forces of Estonia Andrus Merilo discussed the acquisition of Ukrainian drones. About it reports ERR. "The quality of drones in Ukraine is very good.

Different models are produced there, and we continue our work in this direction," said Hannovkur. Ukrainian enterprises can also participate in the possible tender. In other words, proposals can come from Ukrainian manufacturers, Estonian and Western, the minister said. In November, Pamkur met with Ukrainian colleague Rustem Umerov, which discussed the possibility of purchasing weapons.

The Estonian Minister noted that if there are companies that can offer the necessary Estonia in Ukraine, there will be no political restrictions. A month ago, Hanno, Makur, said that the Estonian government was planning to purchase weapons at the OPC. He believes that such cooperation will help to expand production volumes.

During the martial law, there is a ban on the export of weapons, but if countries agree and cooperation will be in the interests of Estonia and for Ukraine, the ban may be lifted. "It should be understood that this can only be done: if we buy, Ukraine receives more money. And they will be able to produce more for their army," the Estonian Minister said.
