President Recep Tayyip Erdogan received a Ukrainian delegation, which included Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine and Minister for Strategic Industries Oleg Urusky, as well as representatives of leading enterprises of the Ukrainian defense and aviation industry, including the Antonov aircraft manufacturer and the manufacturer of aircraft engines Motor Sich ".

It is reported that at the meeting, which took place after Ukraine's proposal to jointly produce the Antonov transport aircraft, Erdogan signaled his readiness to work together if necessary conditions were created.

It was decided to continue technical negotiations on this issue. Then the Ukrainian delegation got acquainted with the work of the Turkish aviation and defense companies TAI, Roketsan and Aselsan.

It is noted that, in addition to the production of a transport aircraft, new agreements between the two countries in the defense sphere were also discussed.

At the same time, it is assumed that Ukraine, which acquired the UAV from Turkey, may make new purchases in the near future. The conclusion of new cooperation agreements is also possible.

In a telephone conversation with President Erdogan the other day, Ukrainian President Zelenskiy said: "We hope to sign a defense agreement by the end of the year." Erdogan, in turn, noted that he would be glad if Ukraine began to use the products of the Turkish defense-industrial complex.
