In his opinion, Ukraine has become a model for other countries by making fundamental changes in military practices.
He also highlighted the key role of modern technologies in contemporary warfare, acknowledging that Ukraine has creatively managed to leverage these technologies to strengthen its defense. Dresil emphasized the importance of international cooperation in this area, stating that these innovations inspire not only Ukraine but also other nations.
Challenges and Opportunities
