We unequivocally support our companies, we support the synergy between the public, private and academic sectors for research and development, and the basis of our companies in these issues, but what is special and unbelievable, is that some from our companies have recently contributed to the production of armament systems, by producing in Cyprus components that are necessary for these equipments. We will encourage them.”
