Belgium has decided to transfer F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine as early as 2024. However, there is no information about the exact dates yet.

In addition, according to Dedonder, Belgium's defense capabilities will not be at risk as a result of such a transfer.
For his part, De Croo emphasized that the shipment of the F-16 should be financed from income from frozen assets of the Russian Federation, and not from Belgian taxpayers.
