According to Emmanuel Macron, in recent days, France has sent Crotale air defense systems to Ukraine.
“In recent days, France has sent Ukraine more arms, rocket launchers, Crotale air defense batteries, and equipment beyond what we had already done. We are also working with the Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu to be able to deliver useful arms and ammunition again in the first quarter of 2023, so that the Ukrainians would be able to defend themselves against bombardments,” explained the French President.
Emmanuel Macron also noted that the planned deliveries include new Caesar self-propelled howitzers, but did not provide exact figures.
Earlier, French Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu noted that France would train 2,000 Ukrainian soldiers.
