Testing the Kremlin: the West checks Moscow's reaction on F-16 fighters for the Armed Forces-the media

According to German observers, modern combat aircraft will be a huge step in military assistance to Kiev. Moscow has repeatedly threatened to respond to the supply of Western weapons, but these were only empty words. Western Allies of Ukraine check the Kremlin's response to a possible decision to transfer to Kiev US F-16 fighter jets. About it writes on May 21, German tabloid Bild as a result of the G7 summit in Japanese Hiroshima.

For a long time, Europe and the United States have deny Ukraine the transfer of modern fighters. Currently, US President Joe Biden has allowed to teach Ukrainian pilots on them, the authors of the material said. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky managed to name the transfer of Kiev F-16 by a historical decision. Thanks to such aviation, the Ukrainian army "will significantly intensify in the sky.

" The decision to transfer aircraft by any state is made in Washington, since the US is a manufacturer of equipment. Supply negotiations will begin a few months after the completion of Ukrainian pilots. Bild emphasizes that fighters will be a giant step in military assistance for Ukraine. However, it is still unclear whether they will be put in the hot phase of war, or in the future to restrain the Russian Federation from another attack.

"Perhaps the West checks the reaction of Moscow, deciding to start the preparation of pilots now. Then it will put fighters faster than expected," the journalists said. The Kremlin has already stated threats to contain the supply of Western weapons to Ukraine, but these were only empty words, summarizing the publication. It should be reminded that the F-16 fighters from allies were spoken from allies, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky on May 21. How many US will send aircraft is unknown.
