French President Emmanuel Macron said his country would train Ukrainian fighter jet pilots, but he would not send the planes.
Macron disclosed this hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited Paris.
“We have opened the door to train Ukrainian pilots.
“The trainings can start from now.
”Several European countries had decided it was now necessary to start training,” Macron said.
Zelensky made the surprise trip to France on Sunday, on the heel of visits to Germany and Italy.
A Ukraine-France joint statement said new supplies would be prepared to address the most pressing and immediate needs to strengthen Ukraine’s defences.
The statement said that Paris would continue to help Kiev defend itself, “focusing its effort in supporting Ukraine’s air defence capacities in order to defend its population against Russian strikes.”
