The French-made CAESAR self-propelled howitzers, provided by Denmark, have already arrived in Ukraine.

The relevant statement was made by Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov on Twitter, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“CAESARs from Denmark are in Ukraine! […] Denmark had intended to use these systems for its army, but wisely and nobly decided to transfer them to the Ukrainian Army due to the significant threat that russian aggression against Ukraine poses to Europe as a whole,” Reznikov wrote.

The Minister of Defense noted that Danish partners contribute to organizing the training of the Ukrainian military.

According to Reznikov, Ukrainian artillerymen appreciate the maneuverability and accuracy of the CAESAR howitzers.

“Ukraine now has the world’s second-largest CAESARs artillery park, thanks to our partners in France and Denmark,” Reznikov stressed.

A reminder that the Danish government endorsed a decision to hand over all of their 19 French-made CAESAR howitzers to Ukraine.
