Ukraine planned to push for Western fourth-generation fighters like F-16s after securing supplies of main battle tanks last week, an adviser to defense minister Oleksiy Reznikov said on Friday.
In Poland on Monday, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki also did not rule out a possible supply of F-16s to neighbouring Ukraine, in response to a question from a reporter before Biden spoke.

Russian officials claimed the advance had secured a foothold in the coal-mining town of Vuhledar. Kyiv has acknowledged heavy fighting there but says it has repelled the push so far while inflicting heavy losses on the attackers. It said Russian commanders were probably trying to develop a new axis of advance, as well as to divert Ukrainian forces from Bakhmut, a city further north that has been the main focus of Russia’s offensive for months.
Zelenskyy is urging the West to hasten delivery of its promised weapons so Ukraine can go on the offensive, but most of the hundreds of tanks pledged by Western countries are months away from delivery.
Talk about ill equipped for war. Zelensky should of acquired military equipment years ago. Talk about procrastination
Of course they do!
at a cost of $64 million each, I saw NO!
The hell with Ukraine. Let’s secure our own border. The Ukrainian Azvov Battalion is a bunch of Nazis.
Biden provoked Russia pulling Ukraine and NATO into a war, and now two NATO countries France and Poland question Biden's unwillingness to provide military support to Ukraine as they say nothing is excluded when it comes to military assistance to Ukraine.
Oh wow. Someone who keeps asking for shit is asking for more shit. European problem here. Stop using my money to fight it.
West needs to quit dithering while Ukrainian's die. Deliver advanced fighter aircraft and long strike missiles that will make a decisive difference insuring the defeat of Putin.
Get them the jets, we are all in this. If putin wins, we all lose
It not lies in them but the proportion of Western power and remote USA
They deserve more
