(MNI) London – All timings are subject to change.

Monday 17 November:

• Ukraine-France: French President Emmanuel Macron is hosting his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in Paris. During their meeting at Villacoublay air base near Paris, the two signed a letter of intent for Ukraine to purchase up to 100 Rafale fighter jets, as well as other French-made military equipment, in its efforts to repel Russia’s invasion. The purchases are due to be realised over a period of around 10 years, although questions remain on the ability of Kyiv to fund these purchases, having signed a separate letter of intent to purchase 100-150 Gripen jets from Sweden.
