Dmytro Kuleba: MFA creates new opportunities for Ukrainian companies by entering UN procurement market

Dmytro Kuleba, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, addressed the participants of the UN Procurement and Vendor Fair in Odesa, which took place on 16 October as a joint initiative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the UN Office in Ukraine.
The event brought together more than 200 representatives of the business community from the southern regions of Ukraine, as well as procurement officers from UN agencies operating in the country.
The Minister underlined the UN’s need for Ukrainian goods and services that met the highest quality criteria.
“The goods procured by the UN for humanitarian aid in Ukraine and for further reconstruction should, as far as possible, come from Ukrainian suppliers. This is a double win for Ukraine,” said Dmytro Kuleba.
The fair included a practical session for businesses on how to register on the UN Global Marketplace platform and one-on-one consultations with representatives of UN agencies for Ukrainian entrepreneurs who were starting or developing cooperation with the UN.
“The implementation of this project will continue in other regions of Ukraine,” assured the Minister.
BACKGROUND
The UN Procurement and Vendor Fair in Odesa is a joint initiative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the UN Office in Ukraine. The Odesa Business Club, the United Activities NGO and the Kyiv Chamber of Commerce and Industry contributed to the involvement of the business community. Organisational support was provided by the Odesa Regional Military Administration.
The aim of the event was to increase the volume of UN contracts with Ukrainian companies by addressing the lack of awareness among entrepreneurs of UN procurement procedures and good practices, and by building bridges between Ukrainian companies as potential contractors and UN agencies as customers.
The first event under this initiative was held in Kyiv in March 2023.
In 2022, the volume of UN procurement in Ukraine through the UN Global Marketplace doubled to reach USD 474 million.

May it be so.
No one has him on their livestreams or podcasts more than once. They all realized before the show is over having him on at all was a bad idea.
I can’t find it now but the stench of rotting Russian soldier smelled when passing the village.
All my support goes to Ukraine and Israel
😂😂😂 So many of ‘her’ responses are not natural and many times quite bizarre (even by FR standards).
With all due “respect”, you’re just as guilty of meme-bashing as those you condemn for it!
Thank you. I appreciate your opinion.
Other than my ROTFL emoticon, my memes typically are political cartoons.

I am Ukrainian. My country has been invaded by Russia. In this video I will tell you what happened on the six hundredth day of the war.
Day 600: Oct 16
Today, there are a lot of updates from the Tokmak direction.
Here, the most intense clashes took place around Verbove. As you remember, previously, we saw a video showing how Ukrainian armored fighting vehicles were entering the settlement, indicating that Ukrainians had a foothold in the northern part of the village.
The goal was to conduct a pincer movement onto the remnants of the Russian second defense line and then develop their offensive further. By entering the village, Ukrainians completed the first half of the plan, however, Russian forces conducted a flank attack from the southern fields, saving the Russians in the last trench networks and undermining the Ukrainian plan. Later, it was reported that Russian forces spoiled a Ukrainian attack near Verbove.
Ukrainians understood that the level of control over the southern fields was still insufficient to launch a storming operation without putting the troops in jeopardy, which is why they quickly adjusted their plans and focused on the southern vector of attack.
Today, Russian sources reported that Ukrainians launched an intense artillery preparation on the forefront positions with a specific focus on the Russian fortifications around Verbove. Ukrainians reportedly used not only high-caliber artillery but also rockets launched from fighter jets. When Russians started reinforcing the region in anticipation of the attack, Ukrainians used cluster shells to target forces concentration moving to the contact line.
After damaging and destroying Russian strong points in the tree lines south of the village, Ukrainian fighters from the 82 Airmobile Brigade started attacking under the cover of tanks and armored fighting vehicles. Interestingly, the weather in the Zaporizhia region was rainy today, but it seems like Ukrainians used the bad weather to their advantage.
Since Russians could not use their drones, Ukrainians started using Leopard tanks more aggressively, and even though they still refrained from getting too close to the contact line, the tanks helped to breach multiple Russian positions much more easily.
A fighter from the 24 Assault Brigade reported that the weather cannot affect the assault if the commanders can make a good plan of assault and added that Russians were getting penetrated hard. Several hours later, Russian sources admitted that Russian forces lost a certain number of strong points near Verbove.
If we look at the topographic map, we can see that Ukrainians are moving in the direction of the ridge of the hills. By establishing control over the tactical heights, Ukrainians would completely annihilate the possibility of a similar Russian flank attack that undermined the Ukrainian plans of storming Verbove. However, there is an even bigger – strategic – goal behind it.
By establishing control over the entire line of hills, Ukrainians would be ready to attack Tokmak. If we look a little bit south, we can see that Tokmak is basically on the other side of the hills. The distance between Tokmak and the ridge is around 12 km, which is exactly the same distance as from the ridge to the initial contact line before the Ukrainians launched the counteroffensive operation.
The biggest difference is that all this time, Ukrainians were fighting an uphill battle, but once the ridge is crossed, Ukrainians will be attacking downhill all the way to Tokmak, which is way easier from the tactical perspective. The main strategic goal of Ukrainians, therefore, is to establish control over the ridge before the ground becomes soaked in rainwater, entrench themselves, and wait until spring to resume their offensive effort.
And Ukrainians are very close to achieving this goal. We already saw geolocated footage of the progress near Kopani. Today, it was confirmed that Ukrainians gained more ground in the fields southwest of Verbove. If, on top of that, Ukrainians also manage to take Novoprokopivka, then they would secure their hard-earned gains.
According to the US National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby, Ukrainians still have 4 to 6 weeks before the weather will impact both Ukrainian and Russian operations. And the remaining time may be enough because, as Ukrainian military analysts stated, Ukrainian forces are actively taking advantage of the recent Russian self-destructive offensive near Avdiivka by advancing towards Verbove, near Kopani and east of Nesteryanka.
