NATO air defense can throw Ukraine from its territory: why Putin provokes an alliance (video)

However, one of the main factors of NATO air defense is not only Patriot, but also F-16 and F-18 fighters. Military expert Dmitry Snegirev told this in an interview with focus. The expert emphasizes that on the eve of the rocket strike on the territory of Ukraine, Putin stated that the Russian Federation will monitor the use of Western airfields for F-16 base.

Immediately on the Internet, a "duck" was thrown on the transfer of these fighters to Ukraine, which are allegedly based in neighboring countries. "Such information cards are made to improve and work out the necessary mechanisms," says Dmitry Snegirev. "The recent rocket has been hit by the mood and the consequences of NATO airfields in the future. " But, according to the expert, Putin understands perfectly, the futility of military clash with NATO countries.

However, it is no longer able to take the Russian leadership. In addition, the Russian Federation understands that Ukraine has been able to diversify slowdown from the USA. For example, a specialist, all US military and technical assistance in 2023 was $ 24 billion, and in 2024 only Germany only agreed to allocate to Ukraine aid for $ 12 billion, Denmark will allocate 3. 2, Netherlands 2 billion and other European countries, such countries, such as the United Kingdom, Norway and others.

"Even if" Trump comes and order ", as the occupiers are calculated in the US election, then their hopes for the termination of Ukraine's support are already failed," emphasizes Dmitry Snegirev. "That is why the Russian Federation is trying to somehow provoke NATO European countries to reduce conflict to reduce The nature of assistance to Ukraine leaving more weapons for its defense. " Earlier, Focus said that Poland had placed two pairs of F-16 fighters on the eastern NATO border.
