Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who has visited England, demanded to receive fighter jets from London during a speech in the parliament of this country.
Zelensky presented a flight helmet as a symbolic gift from Ukrainian pilots to the British Parliament to persuade London to send fighter planes to Kiev.
Asking Britain and its other western allies to send fighter planes to Ukraine, Zelensky said: I ask you and the whole world to provide fighter planes to Ukraine.
It should be noted that Ukrainian President Volodymys Zelensky arrived in London on Wednesday as part of his first visit to England after the start of Russia's special military operation, and he is going to meet with King Charles III of England after his speech in Parliament.
At the same time, the British Prime Minister's office did not deny media speculations about sending fighter jets to Ukraine.
The British Prime Minister's Office announced on Wednesday, after the meeting between Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, that the London government has no plans to transfer its fighter jets to Ukraine in the short term.
The statement of the British Prime Minister's Office also mentions the continuation of London's warmongering plans against Ukraine and adds that the country's air force will try to shorten the training program for Ukrainian pilots and start it as soon as possible.
The British Prime Minister's office has announced that London has not yet made a decision about sending a fighter to Kiev, but it will consider this possibility.
British Defense Minister Ben Wallace said earlier that the country's government has not yet made a final decision about the impossibility of sending fighter jets to Ukraine, but at the moment it is advisable to refrain from doing so.
According to this report, Wallace said: There is no definitive decision at this time. I don't think this is the right approach at the moment.
In response to a journalist's question about the possibility of Ukraine acquiring British fighter jets, the British Defense Minister added: "After working for a long time, I have learned two things.. Never say something is possible and never say something is impossible."
This is despite the fact that the spokesman of British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had previously announced in response to Ukraine's request that sending fighter jets to Kiev is not a practical matter.
The spokesman of the British Prime Minister said: British fighters are very complicated and it takes months to learn to fly them. Considering this issue, we believe that sending them to Ukraine is not practical.
