Ukraine and Belgium signed a bilateral security and long-term support agreement on Tuesday which includes the delivery of 30 F-16 fighter jets and at least 977 million euros ($1.06 billion) worth of Belgian military aid.
The deal was struck in Brussels during Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s visit to Belgium.
The F-16 jets will be delivered to Ukraine by 2028, with the first arriving this year. The two countries also pledged to deepen their cooperation in intelligence, cyber security and countering disinformation, Zelenskyy said in a post on social media platform X.
“The agreement guarantees Belgium’s timely security assistance, modern armoured vehicles, equipment to meet Ukraine’s air force and air defense needs, naval security, mine clearance, participation in the artillery ammunition coalition, and military training,” Zelenskyy said.
