The point is Soviet fighter jets will be shot down over NATO territory, including Turkey.
“The point is Soviet fighter jets will be shot down over NATO territory”
I think it was 1991, Paine Field Airshow, Everett, WA, I first saw Mig-29s and SU-27s perform, along with AN-225.
Bull Crap.
Shooting down aircraft is a command decision, they are not on auto fire.
If Erdogan wants Putin to visit, Putin must fly across Ukraine, and so he requires fighter escorts through the war zone.
Nothing strange about that.
I doubt this is a bone of contention.
Sounds like a made up story, to show everybody that “THE RUSHANS ARE LEWZING!” ( meme)
Keep that Ukraine war money pump for the lefty Dems going!
CHA-CHING!
