This was reported in the Danish government.
"With the latest aid package, Denmark emphasizes its support for the struggle for Ukraine's freedom. The 17th package is focused on increasing defense and industrial cooperation with Ukraine. I visited a number of Ukrainian defense industry enterprises in Kyiv, and it became clear that there is great potential for future cooperation that will help deliver the necessary equipment to Ukraine to make a difference on the battlefield," said Danish Defense Minister Trolls Lund Poulsen.

As noted, in his turn Ukraine's Defense Minister Rustem Umerov thanked Denmark and Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen personally for their unwavering support and strengthening of Ukraine's defense capabilities.
€295 million in military aid from Denmark includes investments in the Ukrainian defense industry for the purchase of weapons and ammunition, drones, the production of missile components in cooperation with the Netherlands and the Czech Republic, as well as support for naval capacity.
In order to deliver the 17th aid package to Ukraine, EU allies must conclude a series of agreements on purchases and donations. Countries can provide assistance both individually and by combining the efforts of their own defense companies to help Ukraine.
Funding for foreign purchases will be the same as in the past: Denmark will transfer funding to another country's defense ministry, which provides direct contact, contracts and control with the national military industry to help Ukraine.
Currently, it is known that the Danish government has pledged almost 41.4 billion Danish kroner (€5.9 billion) for the military support of Ukraine for 2022-2028.
