“We discussed further coeration for 2025, including increasing military support to €2.2 billion. This assistance will form the foundation for training our brigades and equipping them with modern technogy,” Umerov noted.

According to him, special attention was devoted to joint projects in the defense industry.

“Ukraine continues to demonstrate the effectiveness of its develments, which include the missile program, such as Neptune, and combat drones capable of precisely striking deep into enemy territory,” the minister wrote.

He said that a key focus of the talks was a new investment initiative—the "Danish Model 2.0." This format envisions mutually beneficial coeration, including investments in Ukraine's defense and technogy companies, accelerating arms supplies, and providing Denmark with access to advanced technogies.

He specified that he highly appreciates Denmark's support through the “Danish Model” of financing the Ukrainian defense industry.

“This initiative has already proven its effectiveness, and we agreed to continue its develment. Denmark’s leadership in this area sets an example for other countries! We agreed to work out the details of this model, which will become an important step in strengthening Ukraine’s Defense Forces and supporting our shared goals,” Umerov added.
