There are 11 billion euros for this, just for defense. In addition, Germany participates in the European Peace Fund, which strengthens our defense,” he said.
The President also thanked France “for new opportunities for our soldiers in the fight against Russian terrorism,” but noted that it was too early to give details.
“Thank you to Britain for the agreement to train our pilots. We are creating a coalition to train pilots on modern Western aircraft. Britain – yes, Poland – yes. I am sure that France and our other partners will join . We continue to work with a coalition of fighters, we are acting actively. Of course, thanks to Britain for the long-term capability for our soldiers, for the range,” Zelensky added.
