Lavrov slams West’s plans to send F-16s to Kiev as unacceptable escalation
The head of the Foreign Ministry drew attention to the fact that “in the political science circles of the West, there is already talk about decolonizing Russia”
“Western political analysts have been discussing how to decolonize Russia.” “They mean dividing our country. I hope sensible people will abandon their reckless support for the neo-Nazi regime which was created by the West itself,” Russia’s top diplomat added.
I can’t see the F16 flying in the Ukraine without the whole of NATO being involved, and I can’t see that happening because the Europeans are already sick of this business. An entire infrastructure would be needed to support this kind of escalation, of which the Ukraine is incapable, and which would be ineffective in any case. The Americans have been taught lessons in modern warfare. One of them is the side with the best air defences controls the skies.
