The commander of the Naval Forces of Ukraine, Admiral Ihor Voronchenko, introduced the “New Strategy of the Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to 2035” at the International Maritime Security Conference in late November 2018. At least a year of intensive work preceded this document. Admiral Voronchenko noted that the strategy concentrates on building up real naval capabilities to adequately respond to maritime threats created by its more powerful maritime enemy. “This requires new thinking, some time and essential recourses,” he summarized (Mil.gov.ua, November 29, 2018).
