According to the agency, in response to a journalist’s question about whether there will be statements on the F-16 for Ukraine at the NATO summit, a White House official expressed hope that “next week we will have more to announce ” in this context. .
“The United States has been training Ukrainian pilots on the F-16 platform for more than a year, and we have made significant progress,” said a US administration official.
