Britain and the Netherlands are working on an βinternational coalitionβ to help Ukraine procure F-16 fighter jets that Kyiv says are vital to its defense as Russia ramps up its its aerial strikes, a spokesperson for UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said Tuesday.
The two NATO allies are trying to get the US-made warplanes to Ukraine as well as training Kyivβs pilots to fly them, according to the Downing Street readout following a meeting between Sunak and Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte at the Council of Europe Summit in Iceland.
