The  French authorities intend to cancel the delivery of some Caesar self-propelled artillery mounts ordered by Denmark in order to give them to Ukraine.

According to the French edition  of Le Monde , France is preparing to supply Ukraine with a new batch of Caesar howitzers, taken from an order that was originally intended for Denmark. 

The supply can include from 6 to 12 howitzers, while Kyiv asked for 15.

“While technical discussions are being completed, the maneuver is the subject of a political agreement in principle between the three governments,” the newspaper writes.

These data came to the press after negotiations that lasted in recent weeks between French President Emmanuel Macron, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.

  1. “The supply can include from 6 to 12 howitzers, while Kyiv asked for 15.”

    If France pulls through with this, then they kept their promise at least partially, other than the Germans.

  2. 6-12 is better than none, or bs promises of giving them but not for years. I did also see some footage of French soldiers in the AFU, not one German as of yet.
    I’ll see if I can find it again and try to post it in <18 hours.
