Since the fall of 2022, Spain has trained over 5,000 Ukrainian soldiers as part of the EU mission.
This was reported by Spain's Defense Minister, Margarita Robles, during a meeting with Ukrainian soldiers undergoing training in Toledo.
Robles emphasized that
"Spain's solidarity, support, and commitment to Ukraine remain unwavering, just as they have been since the beginning of Russia's invasion."
She also highlighted the brutality of the war, "especially in these days when Ukrainian civilians are falling victim to attacks that are unacceptable from any standpoint, as they violate all norms of the law of war and humanitarian law."
"Spain is sending everything we can to Ukraine within our capabilities, and in terms of training, the Spanish military plays an extremely important role. I am very proud of the work they are doing and grateful for it," the Defense Minister stated.
According to her, since the fall of 2022, Spain has trained over 5,000 Ukrainian soldiers, with around 2,500 Spanish instructors participating in the training.
