NATO is planning to expand cooperation with Ukraine on defense technology and share more intelligence about Russia’s electronic warfare capabilities. This move comes as some NATO members lift constraints on Kyiv’s ability to wage war.
The agreement aims to introduce new standards for information exchange between Ukraine and NATO, including details on the supply chain of drones. It will be finalized before the Alliance summit in Washington.
For Ukraine, this agreement is an opportunity to become a large-scale technology supplier after the war. NATO also seeks to replicate examples of rapid deployment and adoption of military technology.
The recent NATO-Ukraine Defense Innovation Forum discussed countering Russia’s ongoing jamming of the global GPS positioning system, which has affected Ukrainian drones and foreign precision weapons.
