Ukrainian pilots will begin to receive training to operate “NATO-standard” fighter jets, according to British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky appealed for weapons to prevent"stagnation" in the face of the Russian invasion.
The announcement in London puts Sunak in a now-familiar position of setting a precedent that might be followed by other Western powers, as he was the first Western leader to authorize the provision of main battle tanks to Ukraine. This decision was followed soon after by similar pledges from the U.S. and Germany.
“In Britain, the King is an air force pilot. And in Ukraine today, every air force pilot is the king for us, for our families,” he said."It's the helmet of a real Ukrainian pilot. He is one of our most successful aces. He is one of our kings. And the writing on the helmet reads: ‘We have freedom. Give us wings to protect it.’ I trust this symbol will help us form our next coalition — coalition of the plan.
