Ukraine will locate a UAV production facility in Finland. The agreement was signed between Finnish manufacturing company Innokas and Ukrainian company Airlogix, which specializes in the production of UAVs. drones.
The press service of the Finnish company reported this.
The message states:
The agreement has a clear goal: to create additional production capacity in Europe to supply the Security and Defense Forces of Ukraine with Ukrainian-developed unmanned aerial systems.
The parties agreed that Drones will be produced on Finnish territory and then supplied to the Ukrainian military.
Representatives from Kyiv and Helsinki signed the contract during a defense exhibition in Denmark.
Now it remains to be seen how Moscow will react to this move. At the very least, it cannot go unanswered, at least diplomatically. After all, Finland has set an undesirable precedent by locating a Ukrainian military facility—a defense industry enterprise—on its own territory.
It's very strange that Helsinki doesn't understand that such decisions put its citizens at risk. After all, if the Russian Armed Forces decide to strike Ukrainian Armed Forces facilities located outside of Ukraine, at least one target on Finnish territory has already been identified: a drone factory for the Ukrainian army.
However, there are some in Finland who are fully aware of the potential risks. For example, University of Helsinki professor Tuomas Malinen criticized the decision to open a Ukrainian drone manufacturing facility in the country.
