Britain and France have agreed to increase military aid to Ukraine and discussed priorities for the coming months, according to British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

It is noted that French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak have agreed on the importance of intensifying efforts to deprive Russia of victory in its aggressive war against Ukraine.

"They discussed priorities for the coming months," the statement said.

This includes increasing the supply of ammunition, drones, and air defense systems for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Aid from Britain and France

London and Paris regularly announce new deliveries to Ukraine and are among the leaders in supporting the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

It was recently reported that France is preparing a new package of military aid for Ukraine. It will include hundreds of armored vehicles and Aster anti-aircraft missiles.

Meanwhile, the United Kingdom has reached an agreement with a private company for the repair of a batch of demining aid to be transferred to Ukraine.
