President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Ukraine would receive F-16 fighter jets in the near future. The Head of State noted that Denmark would provide the combat aircraft to our country.

Zelensky also thanked Denmark for participating in the Peace Summit. The President wrote about this in his Telegram.

According to the head of state, Denmark actively promoted the involvement of the countries of the Global South in the implementation of the Peace Formula. Zelensky noted that during a meeting with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, he discussed the preparation of F-16 fighters for transfer to Ukraine.

"I am grateful to Mette Frederiksen for participating in the Peace Summit and Denmark's active assistance in engaging the countries of the Global South in the implementation of the Peace Formula. During the meeting, we had the opportunity to discuss the progress of preparations for the transfer of Danish F-16 aircraft, which will be delivered to Ukraine in the near future. We also talked about the approval of the negotiation framework and the start of negotiations on Ukraine's accession to the EU in June," the President said.

As a reminder, Dutch Defense Minister Keesa Ollongren announced that her country would deliver the first F-16s to Ukraine this summer. After that, the supply of these combat aircraft will be put on a "regular basis".

Earlier it was reported that some of the F-16 fighters that Ukraine will receive from its Western partners will be deployed at air bases outside of Ukraine. This will be done to protect the valuable equipment from Russian attacks.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, Ukraine may receive at least three to six F-16 aircraft this year. In the future, it is possible to supply a larger number than today, as the countries that have them in service are gradually rearming with fifth-generation F-35 fighters.
