/tass/. The UK intends to start training Ukrainian pilots this summer. This was announced on Sunday by British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak following the results of the Group of Seven (G7) summit in Hiroshima.

"We support Ukraine in creating the armed forces it needs for the future, and the UK will begin training Ukrainian pilots this summer," Sunak said. According to the head of the British government, the statement of US President Joe Biden in Hiroshima about the F-16 fighter jets was "a real breakthrough at this summit."

Biden said at a meeting with the leaders of the Group of Seven countries in Hiroshima that Washington would support international efforts to train Ukrainian pilots to fly modern fighter jets, including the F-16. On Saturday, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko, commenting on the intentions to supply Kiev with the F-16, said that Western countries continue to follow the path of escalation in the Ukrainian conflict, but Russia will take this into account in its plans.
