Zelenskyy Signs Bilateral Security Deals with Germany and France

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy will be in Paris on Friday to sign a bilateral security deal, as France plans to dramatically increase military spending with a budget set at €47.2 billion this year. Meanwhile, Emmanuel Macron has postponed his Ukraine visit amid pressure for increased aid to Kyiv, and there are differences between Paris and Berlin on defense strategies. Additionally, a Belgian ex-general has criticized Europe's arms production, citing a "cultural problem" in adapting to a war-ready industry.
