A group of 14 members of the U.S. Congress, comprising Democrats and Republicans, has sent a letter to President Joe Biden’s administration urging the immediate unblocking of the supply of F-16 fighters to Ukraine.
The New York Times reported this, according to Ukrinform.
“As we saw with the initial hesitancy by our allies to provide tanks to Ukraine, U.S. leadership is crucial for providing Kyiv with additional resources and new capabilities,” the quoted letter, initiated by Democratic Congressman Jared Golden, states according to the journalists.
The congressmen emphasized the importance of providing F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine for the effective resolution of the Russian-Ukrainian war on fair terms.
As Ukrinform reported earlier, representatives of the Pentagon stated that they would not object to the transfer of F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine by third countries.
