The "aviation coalition" will definitely be formed this year, there is no doubt that Ukraine will be able to resolve the issue of providing Western fighters, said Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba.

"The aviation coalition will definitely be formed this year. I don't doubt it now. And when, in fact, Western planes with our pilots will control the Ukrainian sky - this question still requires an additional answer. But, definitely, when a coalition is formed, everything will happen very, very quickly," Kuleba said on the air of the national telethon.

He reiterated his words that there is no doubt that Ukraine will be able to resolve the issue of providing Western fighters.

"It will happen, let's say, sooner rather than later. And now everyone is working on the result. This is one of the key topics for the president. Therefore, this will happen sooner than the Ukrainian society expects. There will definitely be a result," the minister stressed.
