Abstract

The article reports on the differences among Ukrainian allies, particularly the U.S. and European countries like Great Britain and the Netherlands, on the issue of whether to send F-16 fighter jets and other powerful weapons to Ukraine to defend itself against the Russian invasion. According to British Defense Minister Ben Wallace, it is important to Ukraine's allies to show their willingness to send whatever it needs in the battlefield. The U.S. government is reluctant to send the jets.
