Ukraine will receive a certain number of F-16s from Western countries. But they will not be enough to fight on equal terms with Russian aviation, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
"The decision on F-16s is a strategic one, the number of them is not yet strategic. There is a serious number of aircraft that I have agreed on with other countries. After my agreements, there are some processes on both sides," he says.
According to him, Ukraine will receive a certain number of aircraft in the summer and by the end of the year.
"I can't tell you how many planes there will be. They will not be enough. What are they for? They strengthen us, but will these planes be enough to fight on par with the Russian air force? I think it will not be enough," the President says.
