Ukraine Should Develop Ballistic Weapons Jointly with Europe, Expert Urges.
Why Building Ballistic Capabilities in Ukraine Matters
According to Espreso.tv: Aviation expert Valeriy Romanenko has highlighted the critical need for Ukraine to develop ballistic weapons in partnership with European allies. He specifically pointed to the 'Eastern Shield' project, currently being discussed on platforms such as 'Espresso' and 'Slawa.TV'.
According to Romanenko, France possesses expertise in aero-ballistics, while other European nations lack this capability. This creates a unique opening for Ukraine to collaborate with allied countries on modern missile system development. As the expert stated,
“Europe is interested in us building ballistic missiles and doing it together”- Valeriy Romanenko. This cooperation could help fill a critical gap in Europe's defense industrial base.
Current Threats and the Case for International Cooperation
The urgency of this issue is clear given the challenges Ukraine currently faces. Romanenko emphasized that
“the task now is to create this weapon and put it to use”- Valeriy Romanenko. Timely execution of such initiatives could significantly strengthen the country's defense capabilities and enhance its standing on the global stage.
Developing ballistic weapons in Ukraine, especially amid external threats, could dramatically shift the regional military strategic balance. Partnering with European allies, particularly France, would not only provide technological support but also reinforce political and military ties within Europe's broader security framework. This underscores the vital role of international defense cooperation in effectively addressing modern security challenges.
