(ANSA-AFP) - WARSAW, JAN 31 - Poland is not in talks to send
F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, a deputy defence minister said
Tuesday, a day after the US ruled out delivering fighter jets to
the war-torn country. "There are no official discussions on
transferring F-16s at the moment," Poland's Wojciech Skurkiewicz
told AFP. Poland currently has 48 American-made F-16 warplanes.
Asked earlier whether Poland would take action on sending F-16s
to Kyiv, Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said "any new
air force would be organised and possibly transferred in
consultation with NATO countries." "We will act in full
coordination," he added on Monday. Later that day, US President
Joe Biden said he would not be sending F-16 fighter jets to
Ukraine to help it fight Russian aggression. Ukraine's leaders
have said the F-16s are at the top of their latest weapons wish
list. (ANSA-AFP).
