Zelensky excitedly posted a selfie, Ukraine welcomes "great news" from the United States | F16 | Ukraine

Data chart

My first impression is that this is a significant breakthrough achieved by Ukraine.

We have offensive missiles, main battle tanks, cluster bombs, and now F16 fighter jets.

Zelensky was very excited and immediately boarded the plane to fly to the Netherlands. He took a selfie in the Netherlands, and his eyes narrowed with a smile. Next to him was Dutch Prime Minister Luther, who was also smiling, with an F16 fighter jet in the background.

Excited Zelensky then tweeted, "I have reached an agreement with Lutda regarding the number of F16 fighter jets to be transferred to Ukraine, 42. This is just the beginning.". Thank you, Netherlands!

Previously, the Ukrainian Defense Minister also stated, "This is great news from our American friends!"

It's simple, although the F16 fighter jet was gifted by the Netherlands, it was approved by the United States, and behind it was the intention of the United States.

After this was not over, the excited Zelensky immediately flew to Denmark, where he and Danish Prime Minister Fraser Riksen sat in the cockpit of the F16 fighter jet one after another.

Zelensky, sitting in the front cabin, occasionally turned around to talk to the female prime minister, laughing like a flower.

How many F16 planes have you obtained in Denmark?

Zelensky revealed: 19 aircraft.

42+19, Zelensky won 61 F16 fighter jets on this trip, which is indeed great news for Ukraine, which lacks air superiority.

But Ukraine has always demanded F16, why hasn't the United States given it sooner or later, and only given it now?

Based on my personal analysis, there are only a few aspects to consider.

1. The United States urgently needs to improve the combat effectiveness of the Ukrainian army.

Don't forget, the United States also provided Ukrainian cluster bombs before. Why provide this infamous banned weapon. The US statement is that the stockpile of weapons is almost depleted, but it is more important for Ukraine to defeat Russia than anything else.

The counterattack of the Ukrainian army has actually gone bankrupt. To avoid the Ukrainian army being dragged down or even defeated by the Russian army, it is necessary to upgrade the armed forces. So, after the cluster bomb, the United States took out the F16.

2. The approach taken by the United States is actually very strategic.

Please note that the United States has agreed to provide F16, but this time it is not the United States, but the Netherlands and Denmark. For the Netherlands and Denmark, this is also a clearance of inventory, allowing for the installation of more advanced F35.

But after the Netherlands and Denmark took the lead, you see, other Western countries, such as the UK, Germany, Poland, etc., cannot rule out also offering F16 to Ukraine. What the United States wants is this effect.

3. It also gave Russia some time to digest.

This is very interesting. Every time the West provides offensive weapons, they always give the wind first. I have to provide it, no matter what. But the actual time provided each time is often several months or even six months later.

Russia definitely opposes it and vows revenge. But immediate retaliation, the West has not actually provided it yet, and Russia has no reason; When Western weapons really hit the battlefield, Russia seems to have lost its temper after going berserk.

4. This move by the United States is even more of a political stance.

According to Russian parliament member Pushkov, the transfer of F16 from the United States to Ukraine is aimed at creating a false impression of US support for Kiev.

He said, "Sending the F16 to Ukraine is a politically significant but primarily symbolic step. For the United States, it is important to demonstrate its unwavering support for Ukraine, and the transfer of several military aircraft through allies, even if it takes until next year, can become evidence of this."

Of course, he looked at it contemptuously. But I believe that F16, after all, is F16, which will make Russia lose its advantage in monopolizing air superiority. In modern warfare, air superiority is crucial to the success or failure of the war. Ukraine, which possesses the F16, may even launch attacks on Russian territory in the future.

So, Zelensky was extremely excited and flew to the Netherlands and Denmark. After watching the F16, he still wanted to go.

Finally, what do you think?

Let's stick to the rough three points.

Firstly, it is necessary to take Zelensky seriously.

No matter what you think of Zelensky, there is one thing I still admire - his persistence, his resilience, and his perseverance! In the end, he obtained his desired missile, main battle tank, and immediately F16 fighter jet.

This small comedian is already an international figure that cannot be underestimated, and has become Putin's unexpected biggest opponent. If it were not for him, the Russia-Ukraine conflict would not be like this.

Secondly, the West will never be soft on Russia.

Even the banned weapons and cluster bombs were given without hesitation, so the F16 was not a problem. In order to bring down Russia, the West has also gone to great lengths, with all red lines and bottom lines now dotted.

Russia doesn't have a good solution either. The biggest loss for the United States is to let small Western countries take the lead, and then other countries follow suit. Ukraine has become an indestructible powerhouse, and Russia must also be feeling a headache now.

Thirdly, in the short term, peace is becoming increasingly elusive.

This is the most heartbreaking point, the peaceful road is vast, with blood shining all over my eyes. Moreover, the prospects are even more perilous.

I saw that US House of Representatives member and Republican Marjorie Taylor Green warned that sending F16 fighter jets to Ukraine would take us one step closer to World War III.

No wonder Putin accuses that the United States just wants to fight Russia until the last Ukrainian.

It must be seen that the F16 fighter jet is not a main battle tank, but an offensive weapon that can penetrate enemy lines from a long distance. Once it turns red eyed, Ukraine will only defend its own territory against Russian fighter jets and will not launch large-scale airstrikes on Russian territory?

Will Russia remain calm after being subjected to large-scale airstrikes? It's quite scary to think about forcing a nuclear power to the brink of extinction.
