France and Germany have reached an agreement to allow tank producer KNDS set up a local branch in Ukraine to produce spare parts in the war-torn country and train local workers, French Defence Minister Sebastien Lecornu said on Friday.
"We are announcing that KNDS (...) a German-French company will take a foothold in Ukraine with a local unit," Lecornu said at a meeting with his German counterpart in Berlin.
Tank producer KNDS is the holding structure formed by France's Nexter and Germany's Krauss-Maffei-Wegmann.
