Defence Minister Ejup Macedonia has said that the Framework Agreement for Defence Co-operation with the United States has to do with buying helicopters.

Macedonia has said that during its visit to Washington, they have received strong support for capacity building.

During our visit to the U.S. we had a visit to the helicopter factory and there we received their support to buy these helicopters. I appreciate that during the year 2025, we will have Yavelin's first arrival.
