Rome, 14 July (LaPresse) – The Danish government has decided to provide Ukraine with satellite communications services through the European Defence Agency (EDA). As Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen pointed out, this decision will enable Denmark to contribute to Ukraine's space defence.Space is an area that requires increasing attention in defence policy.

As part of the project, the Ukrainian Armed Forces will have access to special terminals for satellite communication. ’This will significantly improve Ukraine's ability to continue its fight for freedom against the illegal Russian invasion.
