This issue is expected to be discussed soon at a meeting of the leaders of both chambers of the Romanian parliament. The vote in the chamber is set to take place at the next joint plenary session.

The Romanian authorities have not officially announced when the training of Ukrainian military personnel will begin.

However, according to journalists' information, they are expected to arrive at the European training center at the Romanian airbase in Fetesti this summer. It is anticipated that the training of pilots on F-16s will be completed by the end of the year.
