Ukraine to send destroyed Russian equipment to allies' museums
Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers has approved the creation of a mechanism to transfer certain samples of destroyed Russian military equipment to museums in foreign countries, according to the decision dated Aug. 14.
On August 14, Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers approved a mechanism to transfer destroyed Russian military equipment to foreign museums, according to a decision released on that date. The Defense Ministry explained that the equipment consists of captured or seized Russian military hardware obtained during Ukraine's defense against Russian aggression.
The confiscated hardware has lost its combat capabilities, contains no explosives, and is safe for international display, the ministry stated. Samples of T-72 tanks, for instance, will be sent to Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Denmark, and the Netherlands. The decision to transfer the equipment was taken at the initiative of both the Defense Ministry and the Culture Ministry of Ukraine.
The TrophyLab platform, launched by the Defense Ministry in June, provides access to captured equipment for study by manufacturers, engineers, researchers, laboratories, and international partners.
