PARIS, February 27. /TASS/. Ukraine’s allies are setting up another coalition to send Kiev long-range weapons, French President Emmanuel Macron said following a Paris conference where Western officials gathered on Monday in a show of unity for Ukraine.

"We are establishing a ninth coalition to supply medium-and long-range missiles and bombs," Macron said at a news conference that was broadcast live on the Elysee Palace’s page on X.

Eight coalitions have been previously set up to arm Ukraine with various munitions, the French leader recalled.
