F-16 F-16 F-16 fighters can only be used in their territory-the Danish Ministry of Defense
"We pass the weapon provided that it will be used to displace the enemy from the territory of Ukraine. And no more," said Ellelemann-Jensen. He added that a similar condition applies to tanks, fighters or anything else. The Russian ambassador to Denmark Vladimir Barbin, for his part, called the Danish authorities' decision "escalation. " According to Barbin, the fact that in Copenhagen now decided to transfer the F-16 aircraft to Kiev, leads to escalation.
Barbin also spoke that Denmark is allegedly covered with the thesis that Kiev has to determine the conditions of peace on its own, which leaves Ukraine no other choice as soon as it continues to continue military confrontation with Russia. Recall that British military expert Sean Bell called the F-16 "aircraft with phenomenal opportunities", but specified that they would not rise into the Ukrainian sky earlier in 2024.
