Zelensky's statement leads RIA Novosti.
According to him, in Moldova, he had a closed meeting with representatives of some countries who "accurately confirmed that they would give the F-16" to Kiev.
"I have already received an understanding from some European partners regarding the quantity. It is powerful," Zelensky said.
At the same time, he noted that there is no infrastructure for these aircraft in Ukraine.
Zelensky claims that the infrastructure will be built later.
"It makes no sense to prepare it until there is an agreement that we will have the appropriate aircraft," the Ukrainian president said.
Earlier, the White House said that US President Joe Biden would discuss Ukraine's security needs with the prime ministers of Denmark and Great Britain.
