The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine plans to purchase patrol boats to strengthen the Border Guard. Corresponding negotiations are being held with representatives of the French company. This was reported by the press service of the department.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine is negotiating with France on the possible supply of patrol boats in the interests of the State Border Service. As stated in the department, several options presented by French companies are considered, the main requirement is the localization of construction and the involvement of Ukrainian manufacturers in the project to upgrade the fleet of boats.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs is considering the possibility of updating the fleet of patrol boats of the State Border Service of Ukraine. One of the most acceptable for cooperation is the offer of the French company OSEA
- said Interior Minister Arsen Avakov, while he did not disclose either the number or type of boats proposed for delivery.
In February this year, Ukraine announced the alleged purchase of 22 ships (boats) from France to patrol the Azov and Black Seas. It was stated that Kiev intends to purchase in France 22 "modern patrol ships," with which you can "completely cover the sea border line." According to Ukraine’s plans, groups of ships and boats should be created in the Black and Azov Seas that will perform law enforcement functions and also counteract "military threats."
Note that the choice of French companies as a possible supplier of boats for the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine is not accidental. Recall that the head of this department Arsen Avakov in France has “good connections”. It was with the French side that Avakov signed a contract for the supply of 55 helicopters manufactured by Airbus Helicopters (light H125 and H145 and heavy H225) for departments belonging to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
