Advocacy for weapons

The decision by Western countries to provide Ukraine with F-16 fighter jets marked a historic step in strengthening our air defense. The Netherlands, Denmark, Belgium, and Norway were the first to announce their intent to help. Soon, more than 10 other countries joined the coalition — including the United States, which approved the re-export of the jets. F-16s will help to defend Ukrainian skies from missiles, drones, and enemy aircraft, and will significantly enhance Ukraine’s ability to operate at strategic depth.
