YouTube Description
as posted by the channelPrime Minister Rishi Sunak pledged support for a coalition to help provide Ukraine with a fleet of Western-made fighter jets, although he stopped short during a surprise UK visit by President Volodymyr Zelenskiy of promising actual aircraft.
Sunak told Zelenskiy on Monday that he was “very keen to build that coalition of countries to give Volodymyr and his people the aircraft support that they need.” The UK prime minister also committed to giving Ukraine more attack drones and air-defense systems during unannounced talks at his Chequers countryside retreat north of London.
“We want to create this jets coalition and I’m very positive with it,” Zelenskiy said after the meeting. “And I see that in the closest time you will hear I think some very important decisions. But we have to work a little bit more on it.”
Sunak’s spokesman, Max Blain, later told reporters that there were “no plans” to send British Typhoon or F-35 jets to Ukraine because Kyiv had decided to use F-16s, which the UK doesn’t own.
