Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky pitched a drone deal to Bahrain during a visit to the country, advertising Ukraine’s battle-tested security expertise, Reuters reports.
Zelensky said he had discussed with King Hamad bin Isa al-Khalifa Iran’s strikes against Bahrain and the Strait of Hormuz.
“Our country is facing similar terrorist strikes almost every day, and our people have relevant experience in full-scale defence,” Zelensky said on X.
“Ukraine is ready to share this security expertise with Bahrain and help strengthen the protection of life,” he said. The two countries have agreed to work out the details of a potential deal, the Ukrainian leader added.
Since the US-Israeli war on Iran erupted on February 28, Ukraine has been offering its drones and know-how to several Middle Eastern countries suffering from Iran’s Shahed drone attacks.
