Those f-16s sure cause alot of drama!
The head of Russia’s delegation to the Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), Konstanting Govrilov, warned of “retaliatory measures if Kyiv uses NATO air bases for deploying Western fighters transferred to Ukraine.”
Russia’s foreign ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova has repeatedly warned over the last few months that there have been previous official warnings about NATO air bases becoming “legitimate targets” if they are used for operations against his nation.
Of all previous Russian warnings to legitimately bomb NATO “arms supply routes” and specters of a direct conflict with the military bloc because it supports Ukraine, the F-16 scenario is the most real, given the strategic nature and offensive orientation of the weapon.
