Pistorius: Germany to Fund Military Training Centers in Ukraine

Germany will allocate over EUR 10 million to an EU initiative to establish military training centers in Ukraine.

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius announced this during a visit to Kyiv, according to European Pravda.

According to Pistorius, these funds will be used to finance the infrastructure of a full-fledged training facility.

He added that such training centers in Ukraine are intended to ensure the Ukrainian army’s high combat readiness even after a possible peace agreement with Russia.

The head of the German Defense Ministry noted that this is one of the measures aimed at deterring potential threats in the future.

The Minister also reported that nearly 27,000 Ukrainian servicemen have already undergone training in Germany.

Earlier, it was reported that Ukraine and Germany are launching joint production of Deep Strike-type drones with a range of up to 1,500 km.
