U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken claimed he is looking “very actively” at a scheme for Poland to donate Soviet-designed jets to Ukraine and have them replaced with American jets — hours after the Polish government said the plan was “fake news”.
“We are looking actively now at the question of airplanes that Poland may provide to Ukraine and looking at how we might be able to backfill should Poland decide to supply those planes,” Blinken claimed during a visit to Moldova, which borders Ukraine and, like its larger neighbour, involuntarily hosts Russian-backed separatist territory.

Ukraine officials and media are lying to us.
Russian officials and media are lying to us.
USA officials and media are lying to us.
EU officials and media are lying to us.
UK officials and media are lying to us.
Etc.
In war, the first casualty is the truth.
I pity the fool who thinks “this is the ONE thing they’re not going to lie about.”
Work on regaining your credibility, then get back to us on where to wage war next.
The next Variant is now Rampant, infecting most of the ‘free’ world.
The Variant has a name. It is called ‘Ukraine’.
Welcome to GlowBull Warming 3.
Day late and a ruble short.
More money for the war machine.
Have the people i State Dept forgotten everything that was learned from 1949 - 1991?
Do not let a local conflict escalate into a major conflagration, especially when the conflicting parties are nuclear powers.
I doubt that. We have unused jets sitting in Arizona.
“Looking Actively” needs to be defined.
It means nothing but that is an over simplification.
A better definition it its what politicians tell you when asked what they plan to do about some problem that they have no intention of ever resolving and want to off their back.
Blinken is an imbecile
Not fake per Polish newspapers.
What exactly is the plan? I read something about Mig 29s that somehow turned into F-16s that people in Ukraine could hop in fly in about a day or so. Sounds iffy to me.
How do you know when the politicians are lying?
When their lips are moving.
Getting reliable information about what is going on in the Ukraine is extraordinarily difficult—and unfortunately we getting a lot more heat than light around here.
The current plan is to donate 3 - MiG-29UB-12 (two-seaters) to the Ukraine.
The problem is finding a Ukranianian airfield in usable condition. Also, Poland wants them replaced with F-16s which would require a rush strip out of the avionics system.
Look for it to happen.
CNN is playing it up like a done deal. But Poland wants no part of an angry Russia on their border.
Or as someone suggested, the US could base F-16 squadron in Poland
Our State Department would gladly sacrifice Poland to take out Putin, it would kill two birds with one stone.
These people are idiots. No military operations should be discussed in public.
i guess this means that all the social media oligarchs will ban and cancel Blinken due to his fake news and misinformation ...
