Ukraine and Czechia sign defence agreement in Britain

Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala signed an agreement on security cooperation and long-term support with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on the sidelines of the European Political Community summit in Oxford on Thursday.

Prior to the signing, Mr. Fiala told reporters that the agreement was not a legally binding international treaty, but was an important symbol, framing existing cooperation and creating space for future cooperation.

Mr. Zelensky expressed his thanks to the Czech prime minister and said the agreement was another step in expanding cooperation between the two countries in the security sector.
