Ukraine is discussing a security agreement with Ireland, and Romania plans to join the development of the Ukrainian Neptune missile.

Representatives from Ukraine and Ireland held negotiations to conclude a bilateral security agreement and develop bilateral cooperation. Ukraine has already signed 25 such bilateral documents, as well as the Ukraine Compact, a multilateral document containing support commitments for Ukraine.

Romania, following the example of other European countries, plans to develop weapons in cooperation with Ukraine, particularly focusing on R-360 Neptune anti-ship missiles. Earlier, it became known that the Ukrainian defense industry was working on modernizing the R-360. Romania seeks to ally with Ukraine to control the waters of the Black Sea. The Romanian-Ukrainian military-industrial partnership plans are intended for the post-war period.

Neptune missiles are launched from the ground and can strike both land and sea targets at a range of up to 400 kilometers.
