The Controversy Surrounding F-16s for Ukraine
TL;DR Summary
Russia's senior diplomats have said that the transfer of F-16 jets to Ukraine would raise questions about NATO's role in the conflict and would not undermine Russia's military goals. Russia's ambassador to the United States, Anatoly Antonov, also warned that any Ukrainian strike on the Crimea region would be considered a strike on Russia. Ukraine has intensified its strikes on Russian-held targets, especially on the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia annexed from Ukraine in 2014.
