France will transfer Mirage-2000 fighter jets to Ukraine and train Ukrainian pilots as part of a new military cooperation effort, President Emmanuel Macron announced. The training, starting this summer, aims to prepare pilots by year-end. Macron did not specify the number of jets to be delivered. Additionally, France will train and equip a brigade of 4,500 Ukrainian soldiers. This move comes as Ukraine seeks increased military support from Europe amid ongoing Russian advances. Macron emphasized that these actions are not intended to escalate the conflict.
