This marks the fourth and fifth shipments from the IT coalition in 2025. In January of this year, under the initiative of Estonia, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, Ukraine received equipment worth 3.3 million euros, in February – worth 7.5 million euros, and in April – about 2 million euros.

“Thanks to the new delivery from the IT coalition countries, we will be able to technically support the units of the Armed Forces where digital products and services are implemented.
