The United States of America will not block the supply of

F-16

fighter jets to Ukraine by allied countries if they decide to do so.

Washington is allegedly not against this from

international partners.

This is reported by CNN with reference to its own sources.

It is noted that at the beginning of the war, Washington believed that the transfer of these military aircraft would provoke the President-dictator of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, to an unwanted escalation.

However, now the position of the White House has changed,

Difficulties with the transfer of the F-16 are mostly logistical, as well as related to the complexity of management.

After all, training may require a little more time.

At the same time, many officials in the United States point out that the state is not planning to transfer its own planes, because it would be too expensive and difficult. 

However, the USA has actually given the green light to allies who can provide the Armed Forces with modern F-16 fighters.

We will remind, military expert Oleg Zhdanov believes that the 

transfer of F-16 to Ukraine is a matter of time.

He does not rule out that by spring we will receive Western aviation as part of the Defense Forces of Ukraine.
