Three countries already agreed to send F-16 jets to Ukraine – Zelensky

President Volodymyr Zelensky announced this at a joint press conference with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre in Kyiv, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“There are countries that have agreed to transfer F-16s to Ukraine following training - Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway. We are very grateful to these three countries," Zelensky said.

He thanked the head of the Norwegian government for the "important and historic" decision to transfer aircraft to Ukraine.

The President also expressed gratitude to the United States, as F-16 fighter jets are American technology.

At the same time, when asked whether the number of F-16 aircraft to be transferred is enough for Ukraine, the head of state said: "It will be difficult to talk about the number. I believe that we should be grateful for any number. And why do you think that there will be so few? We’ll see”.

As reported, Norway has announced its readiness to transfer F-16 aircraft to Ukraine, two of which are provided for training, but the exact number is still unknown.
