The head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andrei Ermak wrote in his Telegram channel that work was underway to purchase F-16 fighters. “We have positive signals from Poland, which is ready to provide them to us in agreement with NATO,” added Ermak.

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Moravetsky said on the morning of January 30 that “like a few months ago in relation to a moment, any other combat aircraft will be involved and may be transferred to Ukraine in consultations with NATO countries. Here we will act in complete coordination “.
