The Minister of Defense, Luis Petri, and his Danish counterpart, Troels Lund Poulsen, signed this Tuesday a letter of commitment by which the Government of Javier Milei committed to purchasing a fleet of more than 20 F16 supersonic aircraft, which are in reality of the United States but Denmark has them.

Policy

Petri met with the leadership of the Navy and highlighted his work for the “defense of sovereignty”

The agreement has the support of the Joe Biden administration and to close the agreement a memorandum of understanding was signed. The contract would be signed next month in Copenhagen during Petri’s trip to the Nordic country, according to Clarin.com.

Policy

With the radical Luis Petri in Defense, Milei completed the cabinet of ministers

The weapons that will be incorporated into these combat aircraft that will be destined for the Air Force and leave out the own offers made by China and India, will be provided by the United States.

In the meeting that Petri had on Monday with the ambassador of the United Kingdom, Kristy Hayes, they discussed the imminent signing of the contract with Denmark and the United States.

It happens that, although these planes do not have American components, due to the British military embargo on Argentina, Washington usually consults London about these operations. And there were no qualms.
