During the Summit a “Memorandum of Cooperation” was signed between Ukrainian and Polish companies on development and production of new technologies in aerospace industry.

The agreement is part of the foundation of strengthening economic cooperation between Poland and Ukraine” – stated one of the representatives of signatories of the memorandum.
“Economic and industrial cooperation on international level should not be only a domain of private sector and large transnational companies – it should be viewed as raison d’état and a challenge for world’s policymakers” – stressed the President of the Board of the Casimir Pulaski Foundation Zbigniew Pisarski in the opening statement.
