MOSCOW - The transfer of F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine would raise the question of Nato’s involvement in the conflict, Russia’s Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said in remarks published early on Monday.
“There is no infrastructure for the operation of the F-16 in Ukraine and the needed number of pilots and maintenance personnel is not there either,” Antonov said in remarks published on the embassy’s Telegram messaging channel. “What will happen if the American fighters take off from Nato airfields, controlled by foreign ‘volunteers’?“and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky assured Mr Biden that the aircraft would not be used to go into Russian territory.“It is important that the United States be fully aware of the Russian response,” Mr Antonov said.
