Russia wants to resume production of one of the world's heaviest cargo airplanes - the Antonov An-124. The jet, designed in the 1980s, is now part of Ukraine’s Antonov group, but Russia claims it has the rights to it.
The question of renewed production is still being discussed, but the Russian military says the aircraft is not Ukrainian intellectual property.
