In the General/Chat forum, on a thread titled What It Takes to Fly the F-16: Challenges for Ukraine, alexander_busek wrote: Putin said he would consider F-16's nuclear threats [...] Oh, golly! If Putin says he views them as nuclear threats (even though they aren't), then we sure as heck better do as he says and withdraw them!
After all, Putin is the one who started this Special Military Operation war of invasion and conquest more than two years ago, so he has the right to dictate the ground rules.
And if Putin says that the Russians are allowed to use advanced fighters, but the Ukrainians aren't, that's good enough for me!

President Trump has said our CIA helped overthrow the Ukraine in 2014, and there are recordings of Victoria Nuland which expose our CIA's orchestration of that coup.
F16s can carry nuclear weapons but they won't change things in Ukraine, says Putin
Putin noted that the fighters had the capability to carry nuclear weapons "and we also must consider that in the way we organise matters". The F-16s, he said, would be legitimate targets, wherever they might be.
"Of course, if they will be used from airfields in third countries, they become for us legitimate targets, wherever they might be located," he was quoted as saying.
The article doesn’t touch on Vlads extensive AA systems, which have been very effective…..the Ukie’s destroyed Air Force attests to that fact.
This F16 stunt will turn out just like the M1 and Leopard debacle. Throw into the mix the million and half ruble “ bonus” to be given to soldiers taking down an F16 insures they will be hunted down in little time.
The Moscow Military Museum needs a few fallen F16’s in their war booty display for the whole world to see.
The bloodthirst of the zeepers knows no bounds.
1. Links, or you're talking out of your hat.
2a. A Cessna can carry/deliver a nuclear warhead. So what?
2b. Some of the Russian jets flying through Ukraine are equally capable of carrying nukes. Thus, turnabout is fair play!
3. Russia is clearly the aggressor here. The annexation of vast swathes of territory of a peaceful neighboring country is only yet another demonstration of that fact.
4. If Putin doesn't like some of these new developments, he is free to turn tail and withdraw to the status ante bellum. No one is stopping him from giving up.
