“Just a week ago, the government approved the bilateral agreement and sent it to the parliament for ratification, the agreement on the construction of the plant itself,” the diplomat said.
According to the Ambassador, the owner of the “Baykar” company created his Ukrainian company in Ukraine.
“This company has already purchased a plot of land, they have developed a project for the plant itself and intend to implement it to the end, as it was almost a personal commitment of the company’s owners to make this production in Ukraine.”
The Ambassador added that Ukrainian manufacturers producing engines, wheels and spare parts will be involved in the production of “Bayraktar” in Ukraine.
“These can be engines, other spare parts, wheels, many different things that are high-tech in our country and can be used for these aircraft,” Bodnar added.
