Maksym Beznosiuk argues that Ukraine’s defence production has grown, yet remains underutilised. With EU support, joint projects could sustain Ukraine’s war effort and advance the EU’s strategic autonomy. Closer cooperation, legal alignment, and targeted investment can strengthen Ukraine’s capabilities and contribute to the EU's defence readiness
Maksym is a strategic policy expert and director of UAinFocus, an independent platform connecting Ukrainian and international experts around key Ukraine issues.
His work spans EU-Ukraine cooperation, energy and raw materials policy, governance in conflict-affected regions, and the security-policy nexus.
Maksym has produced articles and reports for various organisations and venues, including ACAPS, the Wilfried Martens Centre, Kyiv Post, and New Eastern Europe.
He holds an LLM in Global Environment and Climate Change Law from the University of Edinburgh, a Double Master’s in European Studies (Euroculture) from Uppsala and Jagiellonian Universities, and Bachelor and Specialist degrees in International Law and International Relations from Kyiv National Taras Shevchenko University.
