Currently, neither the Netherlands nor Kyiv plans to disclose when the F-16 aircraft will arrive in Ukraine.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine, citing a statement by Dutch Defense Minister Ruben Brekelmans.
"We have discussed all the technical conditions necessary for these F-16s to fly here, and important steps are being taken in this direction," Brekelmans said.
However, he said that he did not want to name a specific date for the delivery of the fighter jets.
"Ukraine does not want this either. We do not want to make Putin wiser than he already is," Brekelmans said.-
Nevertheless, the minister emphasized that "in the short term," the planes will be delivered.
