France will send fuel supplies to Ukraine along with defense equipment, while Australia is ready to provide Kyiv with lethal weapons.
This is reported by СNN.
It is noted that the French government does not specify what kind of defense assistance is in question. However, according to STT, it is possible that anti-tank weapons are the ones being referred to.
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison also said that Australia will work with NATO members on the supply of weapons to Ukraine. He noted that Australia is already providing non-lethal assistance to Ukraine.
"I have just spoken with the Secretary of Defense, and we will seek to provide any possible support in terms of lethal assistance through our NATO partners, especially the United States and the United Kingdom," Morrison said.
He also added that Australia has accelerated the processing of visas for Ukrainians wishing to enter Australia.
It will also provide more humanitarian aid in the near future, calling it a "top priority".
