Ukraine and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have reached a preliminary agreement on selling Antonov An-148 aircraft to the UAE, Ukrainian President Viktor Yuschenko has said.
"We are approaching a potential agreement on An-148 purchases," Yuschenko told journalists before flying to Kyiv from Abu Dhabi.
Yuschenko said that, while the negotiations are formally continuing, he was sure they will be successful.
Space exploration cooperation was given priority in the negotiations, Yuschenko said. "This is a special area of cooperation, which is among the promising ones," Yuschenko said.
A delegation from the Ukrainian National Space Agency is to travel to the UAE from Ukraine within the next two weeks, and UAE negotiators will be able to discuss joint projects at Ukrainian enterprises during this visit, Yuschenko said.
