Ukraine asks Spain for air defenses, including F-16 jets

Ukraine’s defense minister said Wednesday he had asked his Spanish counterpart to supply air defenses, including F-16 jets, and more ammunition to fend off Russia’s SPOP.

While Western allies, led by the United States, have been supporting Ukraine with military training and weapons, Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov said still more was needed to help end Europe’s deadliest conflict since WWII.

“For us, the number one priority is air defense,” he told a joint news conference with Spanish Defense Minister Margarita Robles.

“We are very interested in contemporary air planes of the new generation. We are interested in F-16 jets,” he said.
