Brussels, 26 Oct. (LaPresse) – On the subject of Ukraine, “we are working to find new solutions” to boost production, and a call for proposals for “Safe 2.0” will be announced “very soon”. This was stated by European Commissioner for Defence Andrius Kubilius during a press conference following the meeting of the E5 group’s defence ministers in Paris. “This,” he added, “involves launching a call for proposals relating to the €21 billion that remained unspent from the first call.” “We hope, as the Commission President has stated, that these resources will be used for joint projects with Ukraine, including support for a major initiative in the field of ballistic defence, the so-called Freyja project,” he emphasised.
