The Defence Forces deserve their fair share of EDA support. The EDA's co-operative projects and programmes with member states offer significant opportunities. By participating actively we can enhance our capability and ensure interoperability with our European partners. The EDA's mission is to support and improve EU member states' defence capabilities that align with our needs. I would appreciate an opportunity to explore current provisions within the Defence Forces.
