Russia warns F-16s delivered by the Netherlands and Denmark will escalate the war

NL Times  

Russia objects to the planned delivery of F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine. Caretaker Prime Minister Mark Rutte announced on Sunday that the Netherlands and Denmark would supply F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine. This move can only lead to an "escalation of the conflict," said Russia's ambassador to Denmark Vladimir Barbin in a statement cited by the Danish news agency Ritzau. He also added that "By hiding behind the premise that Ukraine itself must determine the conditions for peace, Denmark, through its actions and words, seems to leave Ukraine with no other choice but to continue the military confrontation with Russia,", Reuters also reported. On Monday, Danish Defense Minister Jakob Ellemann-Jensen said Ukraine may use the F-16 fighter jets donated by Denmark and the Netherlands only over its own territory.
