Ukraine: A Provider of Security
The meeting participants emphasized that Ukraine’s security is inseparable from NATO’s security, and that Ukraine is not only a recipient but also a provider of security. NATO has already identified a number of lessons from Ukraine’s military experience to be incorporated into the Alliance’s doctrines and defense planning. Adaptability, speed, and innovation have been identified as key factors for success.
The keynote speakers were Admiral Pierre Vandier, Supreme Allied Commander Transformation of NATO, and Lieutenant General Yevhen Moysiuk, Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine.
The parties noted that in less than a year, JATEC has delivered tangible results, serving as a mechanism for transforming operational challenges into concrete solutions.
Alona Getmanchuk, Head of the Mission of Ukraine to NATO, noted that JATEC, established to enhance interoperability and the exchange of experience in full-scale warfare, has already gained recognition through innovative competitions and the involvement of Ukrainian military personnel in Alliance exercises.
The allies reaffirmed their commitment to continue supporting Ukraine and to work together to strengthen its defense capabilities through JATEC mechanisms.
