“We’ve always had the same philosophy, we help the Ukrainians to fight,” he said.
France had until now stopped short of donating fighter jets to Ukraine, arguing that Kyiv needs to focus on obtaining and training on F-16s, which are more common than the Mirages made by the French arms manufacturer Dassault.
The Ukrainian president is in France to take part in the 80th anniversary of the D-Day commemorations, which gathered veterans and world leaders from allied nations on the `Normandy beaches. U.S. President Joe Biden and Macron both drew comparisons between the fight against Nazism in World War II and the Ukraine’s fight against the Russian invasion today.
On Friday, Zelenskyy will meet French defense manufacturers, address France’s National Assembly and hold talks with the French president.
During the interview, Macron also confirmed that a French national had been arrested in Russia on suspicion on espionage.
