This is a problem for Ukraine not unlike Israel's experience. For some time after independence, Israel had an excellent relationship with France, and the IAF made heavy use of French built warplanes. And then, France decided the Israelis were expendable, in favor of "better" relations between France and OPEC countries. This was the catalyst for Israel to develop its own arms industry, though curiously a fighter, the Lavi, proved beyond its otherwise very impressive capabilities, hence the IAF makes the most extensive combat use of Lockheed F-35s in the world. Ukraine is finding the Koreans a reliable supplier, to Hell with Germany and the United States and their pathetic "leaders".
