The Ukrainian President makes a European tour to ask in particular for weapons. After his interview with Emmanuel Macron, he would have succeeded in obtaining a promise of delivery.

The Ukrainian President arrives with a determined step at the Elysée in a warm and simple welcome. Volodymyr Zelensky met President Emmanuel Macron for three hours this Sunday evening. He left with the promise of a delivery of arms. If there is no official list, there would still be enough to equip dozens of battalions, in particular with an anti-aircraft defense device. It has a range of 100 kilometers. It can intercept Russian missiles and even hit helicopters. There would also be light tanks. Fast, easy to use… They are going to have a major role in the next few weeks so Ukraine will get them very quickly.

European countries did not supply planes to Ukraine

“It reinforces the Ukrainian counter-offensive because it is already ready. So what we are about to deliver is extra, it is to allow them to last in the months to come. because this counter-offensive only makes sense if it can last several months”details a cAir Force Chief of Staff. The Ukrainian President also visited Rome (Italy) and Berlin (Germany). Despite his wishes, he did not get planes from European countries. France, for example, has not provided the Rafale since it does not want them to carry out missions on Russian territory.
