At the initiative of the Ministry of Defence, the Government has defined the procedure for sending Ukrainian servicemen of the Armed Forces and the National Guard to the NATO–Ukraine Joint Centre JATEC in the Polish city of Bydgoszcz.

This was announced by the Minister of Defence of Ukraine, Denys Shmyhal.

Within JATEC, experience is exchanged between Ukraine and the Alliance, interoperability between the parties is achieved, and concrete projects on defence planning, conduct of hostilities, and the application of technologies are being developed.

Currently, JATEC is already implementing more than twenty such projects.

“The deployment of an additional contingent to the Joint Centre will make it possible to further intensify the work and to acquire full operational capabilities across the entire spectrum of Ukraine–NATO interaction”, – said Denys Shmyhal.
