He added that Macron’s visit will coincide with the unveiling of “important and new” aid packages for Ukraine.
“If we’re talking about artillery, Emmanuel knows we’re grateful for the CAESAR artillery, it works well… We’re expecting several dozen artillery systems from France and from our partners. There are other things too, but we can talk about them later, when he’s here,” Zelenskyy said.
