I stayed up far too late last night watching the whole of S2 of Emily in Paris which was a much needed break from obsessively scrolling through here or Twitter or news sites, so may have been mistaken about the training as I know they’ve said that training is being given in neighbouring countries as mentioned below.
Also from The Washington Post:
At NATO meetings in Brussels this past week, the focus was on getting Ukrainian forces more advanced weapons systems as quickly as possible.
“Countries indicated they are willing to go further, because we recognize that this is a new offensive, that the Russian forces are more concentrated and that more advanced weapons will be required,” said a Western official who was at the NATO sessions.
British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said Friday that his country will be providing Ukraine with heavily armored troop carriers called Mastiffs — and that British troops will help train the Ukrainians in their operation in a neighboring countries.
The latest package from the United States, Sullivan said, includes laser-guided rocket systems, Puma drones, and armored high-mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles.
More arms shipments from the United States are coming soon, Sullivan said, promising that the types of advanced weapons headed to Ukraine will be “extraordinary” and “unprecedented,” though he declined to offer specifics
