… we must continue to strengthen our military support for Ukraine. Air defense capabilities, long-range capabilities, drones and counter-drone systems. I want to confirm that in the coming days we will provide additional Aster missiles, new training programs and new Mirage aircraft. Together with other colleagues, we will confirm some additional initiatives, but we must focus on this highest priority.
