The damage caused by Russia’s war of aggression to the Ukrainian economy, society and infrastructure, and in particular damage caused to the Ukrainian Defence Technological and Industrial Base (the Ukrainian DTIB), means that comprehensive support is required to rebuild the Ukrainian DTIB. Such support is essential in order to provide Ukraine with the capacity to maintain essential state functions, contributing to the fast recovery, reconstruction and modernisation of the country, to the integration of the Ukrainian DTIB into the EDTIB, and to the adaptation of the Ukrainian DTIB to meeting the standards of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) and other relevant standards. A strong Ukrainian DTIB is vital for Ukraine’s long-term security as well as its reconstruction.
