Denmark will send Ukraine all the F-16 fighter jets that were previously agreed upon by the leaders of the two countries.
Danish Ambassador to Ukraine Ole Egberg Mikkelsen said this on Ukrainian television, Ukrinform reports, citing Liga.net.
He said that the jets would definitely be delivered to Ukraine and that this was Denmark's entire fleet of F-16s, which is now being decommissioned. However, Mikkelsen did not specify the exact number of F-16s to be sent to Ukraine.
The ambassador said Denmark is now disbanding its fleet, as the country will soon receive a new generation of aircraft - F-35s.
"Some of them will be delivered to Argentina. There is nothing to worry about. The F-16s will be delivered as promised," he said.
Argentina earlier signed an agreement with Denmark on the purchase of 24 F-16 aircraft for $300 million.
