Charge d'Affaires ad interim of the Embassy of Ukraine in Malaysia, Denys Mykhailiuk, said that while Malaysia and Ukraine have traditionally traded commodities such as palm oil and sunflower oil, the time has come to diversify into high-tech industries, without sidelining existing trade in oils. bootstrap slideshow 'Trading in services is very important now, and we are one of the biggest countries in IT, so we hope that our experience and our digital products might be useful for Malaysians to become a digital nation as well. 'We know for a fact that the Ukrainian IT and artificial intelligence sectors are definitely admirable, and we have also seen that they have attracted Malaysian interest,' he said during an interview on Bernama TV's programme The Nation, titled Bridging Continents: Malaysia–Ukraine Relations in Focus, on Tuesday. He also mentioned that discussions have already been initiated with relevant Malaysian ministries, including potential areas of collaboration in innovation and cybersecurity. 'For the digital products, we are talking to the Ministry of Digitalisation, and the police as well, because it is a slightly different system in Ukraine. 'In Ukraine, the Ministry of Digitalisation has the aegis authority over all other agencies, whereas here, you have some kind of competition, in which every ministry is responsible for its part,' he said. Acknowledging structural differences between the two countries, Mykhailiuk said these challenges do not hinder business-to-business (B2B) ties, which he described as strong and promising.

Russia dismisses Ukrainian claims it attacked Indian warehouse in Kiev
The Russian embassy in India has dismissed Ukrainian allegations of deliberately targeting an Indian pharmaceutical company's warehouse in Kiev, suggesting that an errant Ukrainian air-defense missile was likely to blame for the destruction of the facility. The warehouse, belonging to Kusum Healthcare, was destroyed last Saturday during a Russian aerial strike on Ukrainian military industrial and infrastructure sites. Kiev was quick to blame the incident on Moscow. The Ukrainian mission in India claimed the warehouse contained 'medicines meant for children and the elderly' and that it had been deliberately targeted by the Russian military. The message was further amplified by the British ambassador to Ukraine, Martin Harris, who described the destruction of the warehouse as a part of a Russian 'campaign of terror against Ukrainian civilians.' At the time, neither New Delhi nor Moscow responded to the allegations. The Russian embassy elaborated on the matter on Thursday, stating the facility was not among the targets of the strike. 'The Russian Armed Forces did not attack or plan to attack on April 12, 2025, Kusum Healthcare's pharmacy warehouse in the eastern part of Kiev,' it said in a statement. ❗️In response to the accusations spread by the Embassy of Ukraine in India the Russian Embassy in New Delhi informs that the Russian Armed Forces did not attack or plan to attack on April 12, 2025, Kusum Healthcare's pharmacy warehouse in the eastern part of Kiev. 'On that day, Russian tactical aviation, strike unmanned aerial vehicles and missile forces hit an aviation plant of the Ukrainian military industrial complex, the infrastructure of a military airfield and armored vehicle repair and UAV assembly workshops at a completely different location,' according to the embassy. The warehouse was 'most likely' destroyed by a Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile that fell on the installation and set it ablaze, the embassy suggested. 'Similar cases have occurred previously whereby Ukrainian air defense interceptors failing to hit their targets fell in urban areas due to ineptly operated electronic warfare systems,' the mission said. The Russian military only strikes legitimate targets and has 'never targeted civilian facilities,' the embassy stressed. It has also become 'customary' for Ukrainian forces to hide their 'air defense systems, rocket launchers, artillery pieces and other military equipment' in densely populated urban areas to use civilians as human shields, the mission noted.
