Ukrainian design Bureau Antonov will continue cooperation with Russia in the field of civil aviation, said Deputy chief of Department of perspective projects, the Antonov Andrey Khaustov at the IDEF exhibition in 2015 in Istanbul. "we have not interrupted the contacts on civil projects. If the civil aircraft has a certificate, the interaction is absolutely besprepjatstvenno. I hope this will not be covered, as will bring the loss of both Ukrainian and the Russian side ", - quotes Khaustova RIA " Novosti ". He added that on defense contacts now closed and from Ukraine and Russia that has become a significant blow to the Ukrainian aviation industry." Unfortunately, we have to open currently the program of import substitution of critical key elements. Because it is not only the construction of new aircraft, but also the maintenance of the aircrafts flying in the other countries, " He added. Khaustov expressed the hope that the misunderstanding between 2 countries will end sooner or later, that will give impetus to the development of bilateral projects. Remember, last summer, the head of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko forbade any military-technical cooperation with Russia.
