People's choice: the gap of military-technical cooperation with Russia will hurt the Kiev

The cessation of military-technical cooperation with Russia will result to the loss of Ukraine of the potential of such cooperation with foreign countries And the massive damage from the collapse of economic ties in high-tech fields, said 1st Deputy Chairman of the Department of the state Duma Committee on industry Vladimir Gutenev ( "United Russia" ).

The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine at a meeting on Wednesday approved a resolution on termination of validity of the agreement between the governments of Ukraine And Russia on military-technical cooperation. The document was signed in 1993.

Gutenev reminded that the Russian Federation Even before the Ukrainian fall has begun to implement the program of import substitution in the defense industrial complex And by the time the fall came " is more or less in a decent degree of readiness ". Even such complex products Like aircraft engines, engines for helicopters, currently quite successfully manufactured at the company name Kuznetsov, he said.

"How is going to live in Ukraine, which is quite serious money earned from deliveries to the market of Russian Federation components And products, And on the reverse side - from Russia received the engines not only to their tractors with Yaroslavl motor company, but also used these engines for reactive systems of volley fire?" - said the people's Deputy Last news .

in his vision, Ukraine " to a greater extent will lose the potential of military-technical cooperation with foreign countries ".

"And Ukraine gets very serious damage from the collapse of economic ties in high-tech fields, As citizens who are native speakers of technical competence, not working for a few years, very much will reduce the already extremely thin cultural And technological layer of the Ukraine," explained Gutenev.

As added the people's Deputy to the Russian Federation as a new decision of the Ukrainian authorities serious threats do not, since the gap of cooperative relations did not happen today.

so, today's decision of the Ukrainian leadership on the rupture of the Treaty on military-technical cooperation with Russia just legally fixes the real situation that exists in the economic relations between countries, drew the attention of the head of the Duma Department for industry.

in mid-June 2014 the head of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, speaking at the meeting of the Council of national security And defence, has prohibited any military-technical cooperation with Russia. Before the ban did not affect the dual-use products, for example, engines for helicopters that have the ability to be used in military And civilian purposes. Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, in response, reminded that Russia already has a plan of import substitution of military products of Ukraine.
