In a separate tweet, the Minister said he signed a memorandum with French Defence Minister Sebastien Lecornu and the Thales Group on the supply of MG-200 radars for Ukrainian air defenders.
The radars, Reznikov added, will help the Ukrainian military to spot enemy drones and missiles, including ballistic missiles.
