Ukraine: Military Aid
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, for what reason was Kosovo not mentioned as a contributory nation to Operation Interflex on a social media post made by his Department on 20 November 2024.
- Answer
-
The UK's support for Ukraine is ironclad, and we are grateful for the contributions of Kosovo and 11 other partner nations to our programme of basic military training for Ukrainian recruits - Operation Interflex - which recently passed the milestone of 50,000 recruits trained since summer 2022.
Our other communications have referenced Kosovo as a contributor.
These include last week's announcement press release detailing the 50,000 recruits trained milestone and a similar social media post two days earlier on 18 November:

I would be very happy to meet with the hon. Member to discuss this further.
