Blinken says NATO countries have "green light" to send fighter jets to Ukraine
CBS News ^ | March 6, 2022 | Melissa Quinn

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Sunday that NATO members have the go-ahead to send fighter jets to Ukraine as the U.S. and allies continue their efforts to help Ukraine defend itself against Russia's invasion.

"That gets a green-light," Blinken said in an interview with "Face the Nation" when asked whether the Polish government, a member of NATO, could send fighter planes to Ukraine. "In fact, we're talking with our Polish friends right now about what we might be able to do to backfill their needs if in fact they choose to provide these fighter jets to the Ukrainians. What can we do? How can we help to make sure that they get something to backfill the planes that they are handing over to the Ukrainians?"

I assumed we would get a few years of peace after America embarrassed itself in the Middle East.

Well, that ratchets things up a bit. But is it wise?

Brandon willing to risk your sons and grandsons in WW3 / nuclear war in order to improve his poll numbers and to save his family’s money laundering operations in Ukraine.

I am confused. We are supplying arms to Ukraine and pretending we are not part of the war? I am no fan of Putin’s invasion but I also think we are splitting hairs saying the US is not involved.

Let’s?

This is Poland, not us. Think the poles have something at risk? Should we tie their hands?

It is straddling the fence. That’s what we should have been doing all along, not ceding the fight.

At no point were we ever ‘not involved’. That would be pretending.

Sending in old Warsaw block weapons from NATO is provocative, but the Russians have never had problems sending weapons to people
We are at war with. These old planes, 40 Years or more, need to be replaced anyway because the won’t be compatible with weapons and hard to get spares. Russia already has threatened nuclear war if anyone helps, this won’t stop with this conflict. The longer Ukraine is in the fight the safer for neighbors like Poland.
