Slavakia to handle the 13 MIG-29 fighters to Ukraine. At an extraordinary online meeting, the Slovak government decided to transfer 13 MIG-29 fighters to Ukraine. Edward Hege, Prime Minister of Slovakia at the press conference, said it. Hege said at the briefing that the government had unanimously approved an agreement to donate MIG-29 fighter jets to Ukraine and would provide the aircraft jointly with Poland. The government unanimously approved an international agreement on the basis of which a decision was made to provide Ukraine with MIGs and a part of the CUB Air Defence System, Hege told. He stressed that the fighter jets would serve to protect Ukrainians and not be used for offence. Slovakia is to receive 900 million euros in compensation from its allies for the fighter jets. The fighter jets are still in Slovakia and Defence Minister Nad did not say at the briefing when they would be handed over to Ukraine. Slovakia announced its decision the day after Polish President Andrei Duda announced the transfer of four MIG-29s to Ukraine in the coming days. Thus, two NATO countries have publicly promised to provide Ukraine with combat aircraft.
