"Ukraine's defense industry is setting up shop in Denmark, offering Kyiv's arms makers protection from Russian missiles and bringing their battlefield know-how to Europe. Denmark's industry and finance ministry announced earlier this month that Ukrainian defense company Fire Point was moving some production processes to the country, calling it an important step for Ukraine's security that also "creates new opportunities for cooperation with Danish and European companies.""
"It's the first step in a new initiative called "Build for Ukraine," to which Denmark has allocated more than $50 million to help Ukrainian defense firms start operations. The project lets Ukrainian companies produce in more conventional ways rather than hiding or breaking up the production process to avoid being a target for Russian missiles and drones. For Denmark and its allies, cooperation offers the firsthand experience of Ukrainian companies making weapons for a major war. That insight is invaluable."
Denmark launched the Build for Ukraine initiative and allocated over $50 million to host Ukrainian defense production. Fire Point plans to manufacture rocket fuel in Denmark, allowing more conventional production methods and reducing risk from Russian missiles and drones. Most Ukrainian firms continue domestic production, but the Danish move provides alternative capacity and supply resilience. Danish and European companies gain direct access to Ukrainian battlefield production expertise. NAUDI noted the funding expands production options for firms limited by Ukraine's defense budget. Denmark's defense minister emphasized that production in Denmark cannot be stopped by Russian attacks.
