UK May Send Fighter Jets To Ukraine When Russia Withdraws Troops - En attendant Godot

The United Kingdom may supply Ukraine with fighter jets for air policing missions after Russia pulls out its troops from new Russian regions, The Telegraph reported, citing an unnamed senior UK military official.

Although sending combat aircraft to Ukraine is "not the priority" for London at the moment, the possibility of such supplies cannot be ruled out, the source told the newspaper.

The UK may consider such a scenario when the Russian forces withdraw from Ukraine and "there is a need for the Ukrainians to conduct an air policing mission to protect their airspace," the source said.
