The military industry returns/ Albania will produce weapons and ammunition

Albania will produce weapons and ammunition. A draft law of the Ministry of Defense paves the way for the initiative through the establishment of a state company, which will control this sector.

The first call for the establishment of this infrastructure in our country was made by the president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenski, when he visited Tirana in February of this year, and the Albanian government did not oppose it.

The proposal for the return of the military industry is argued with the geopolitical needs of the time, where the supply of weapons has become necessary for NATO and the countries it supports in war positions.

In addition, engaging in the strengthening of such an industry can also be considered as a profitable activity for the country's economy.

The state-owned company that will be established is expected to restore the former factories to operation, and integrate new technologies in armaments.

We remind you that this will not be the only investment in the field of defense, as a long-term 10-year plan aims at increased mobilizations in the army and the establishment of several military bases./ euronews/
