Earlier, on November 30, a contract was signed between the French shipbuilding company OSEA and the Ukrainian company Nibulon for the construction of five vessels for the needs of the State Border Service of Ukraine. The production will be in Nikolaev.
In total, Ukrainian border guards will receive 20 such ships, 15 of which will be built in France. The transfer of the first vessel will take place in Odessa. In January 2022, the ship’s crew will undergo special retraining with French specialists.
The implementation of such a project became possible thanks to the signing in 2019 of a framework intergovernmental agreement between Ukraine and France. In general, it provides for loans by the French government and leading European banks for the construction of French ships in the amount of 136.5 million euros with the localization of a part of production in Ukraine.

One question, what did Germany deliver to Ukraine since 2014? Zero kopecke.
Note: Ukrainian build weapons will be installed on these ships.
