Denmark to give Ukraine 19 F-16 fighter jets - PM

She stated this at a joint press conference with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

The prime minister said that Denmark, together with the Netherlands, are the first countries to commit to providing F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine. She expressed hope that other countries will follow suit. Ukraine's ability to secure its bases is crucial, said the head of the Danish government.

Frederiksen expressed hope that their fighter jets will help protect the Ukrainian sky and the Ukrainian people and be able to help Ukraine return its lands, which rightly belong to it.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky started his visit to the Kingdom of Denmark immediately after he visited the Netherlands. The day before, the President also paid a visit to Sweden.
