  The spokesperson of the US Department of State has announced that Washington has agreed to send F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine from two member countries of the NATO military organization, namely Denmark and the Netherlands, and that this will take place after the completion of the training process. for Ukrainian pilots to use those planes. Ukraine, which since last year has been pushing to get the planes, has praised the decision announced by Washington. Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov has described the US decision as "very good news". Despite this, it is expected to take several months until Ukraine will be able to use the F-16 fighter jets to deal with the superior air power that Russia currently has against it. Earlier, Ukrainian Air Force spokesman Yuri Ihnat admitted that Kiev will not be able to operate F-16s by the coming fall or winter. The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands, Wopke Hoekstra, has announced in relation to the issue that the country welcomes Washington's decision to open the way for the delivery of F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine.

Hoekstra said: "This is a big step for Ukraine to be able to protect its people and its country." Denmark's defense ministry announced on Friday that the 11-nation coalition will begin training Ukrainian F-16 fighter jet pilots in Denmark by the end of this month. The Minister of Defense of Denmark, Jakob Ellemann-Jensen has said: "The government has said several times that awarding them (these planes) will be an expected step that will come next for training. We are currently discussing that with our close partners." Jakob Ellemann-Jensen Giving his blessing to the United States for the plan to provide Ukraine with F-16 fighter jets is happening, while the country and its partners in the NATO military organization previously refused to provide Ukraine with those planes. The countries claimed that the move could widen the scope of the war with Russia, which has armed itself with nuclear weapons. But with the decision it took now to agree to send F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, the United States has taken another step to continue and escalate the war in Ukraine.

Ted Snider, an American journalist has written an article on the American Conservative website in which he has indicated the efforts made by three different countries to bring Russia and Ukraine to the negotiation table, where the two sides reached a satisfactory agreement; and even in one of those negotiations held in Istanbul, Turkey was close to signing a settlement agreement between the two rival parties, but the United States stopped all three negotiations. Putin (right) and Biden From the point of view of the Biden government, defeating Russia in the war in Ukraine, again in front of NATO's eyes, will undermine that military organization and lead to further expansion of Russia's influence and power regionally and internationally and change the security equation. military and political in Europe to the detriment of Western countries. In addition, the President of the United States Joe Biden and the senior military and security officials of his government believe that the war in Ukraine is a unique and unrepeatable opportunity to fight Russia as much as possible and weaken that country in order to ultimately prevent the creation of a full-fledged camp system. several in the world.

For that reason, and as they claim themselves, they are determined to prevent Russia from winning the war in Ukraine at any cost. The steps that the United States is trying to take to continue the war in Ukraine with the aim of controlling and weakening Russia are being witnessed while releasing the terrible statistics of the disaster of people's souls caused by that war. The American newspaper New York Times has reported that, in the last 18 months since the war in Ukraine began on February 24, 2022, almost half a million Russian and Ukrainian soldiers have been killed or injured in the war. The disaster of people's souls in the war in Ukraine From Moscow's point of view, the purpose of the United States to continue the war in Ukraine is to weaken Russia as much as possible, the ultimate goal being to divide the country into pieces. And that is the issue that the Americans have been following since the days of the Soviet Union of Russia. K
