Iran Press/ Europe: Denmark will donate 19 F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine to use in its efforts to defend against Russia’s invasion, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Sunday.
The timeline depends on how soon Ukrainian crews and infrastructure are ready for the powerful U.S.-made jets, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte told Zelenskyy as the two visited a Dutch air base.
Ukraine has long pleaded for the sophisticated fighter to give it a combat edge. It recently launched a long-anticipated counteroffensive against the Kremlin’s forces without air cover, placing its troops at the mercy of Russian aviation and artillery.
European and Western countries, especially the United States, by intensifying the pressure of sanctions against the Russian Federation and supplying all kinds of light and heavy weapons to Kiyv, not only did not take a step towards ending the war in Ukraine, but also fueled the fire of conflicts in this country. 219
