Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy praised King Philippe of Belgium and the Belgian government for their ongoing support of Ukraine during a meeting with the monarch. The Ukrainian leader emphasized that Russia continues to bombard Ukraine with missiles and drones, making the reinforcement of air defense a top priority. Zelenskyy expressed optimism that Belgium would offer additional aid, specifically in the form of delivering F-16 fighter jets and ammunition for the aircraft.
