“It is necessary to create a working group under the control of the president, who would be engaged in analyzing legislation, and developing a systematic approach to changes in the defense industry sector,” Artem Viunnik, director of the company “Athlon-Avia” said in an interview with the information agency” Defense Industry Courier” .
“The patronage of the first person of the state is necessary from the point of view of its actual legitimacy. The informal group is easy to create, but then its developments, with which the government structures are not familiar with, can be rejected. And in case of joint work of the group under the control of the top officials of the state, the probability of successful work is much higher. Its activities must end with the adoption of specific regulatory and legal acts, laws. Otherwise, the reforms will remain words, “the agency interlocutor believes.
“The group should consist of representatives of the relevant departments – the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Economic Development, and others – as well as representatives of the defense industry complex – both its state sector in the person of Ukroboronprom, and private – the League of Defense Enterprises of Ukraine, and” Association of Producers of Armament and Military Equipment of Ukraine “. To ensure that the new rules on the market are really effective, they must be created by industry representatives who are directly familiar with the realities of the Ukrainian defense industry. And not only from officials or, say, deputies from the National Security and Defense Committee of the Verkhovna Rada. Deputies in the end should act as the subject of legislative initiative, which will bring these developments to the vote, “- considers the director of” NPP “Athlone Avia”.
