Ukraine has joined the Multilateral Interoperability Program (MIP), which coordinates the technological cooperation of NATO member states’ armies, according to Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov.
“Ukraine has significant IT (Information Technology) potential and is a deserving NATO ally.” “I am confident that we will contribute our expertise to the advancement of collective security,” Reznikov was quoted by the Defence Ministry’s press service as saying.
According to the ministry, associate membership in the MIP gives Ukraine the right to participate in the development and implementation of key NATO standards related to the interaction of combat control systems and related practices, as reported by the Xinhua news agency.
The MIP is a program of technological cooperation between NATO member states’ Armed Forces that was established at the level of national combat control information system developers and aims to achieve interoperability of national C2IS systems.
