Τhe Russians have defeated the front in Marinka too and they are advancing - Moscow's direct threat to three NATO countries

Russian troops violated the Ukrainian defence lines west of Marinka and are moving towards Gregorivka-Krasnogorivka in the Zaporizhzhya region.

Needless to say, panic has gripped the Ukrainian military high command, which can no longer close the "cracks" on the front.

In the gaps of the battles, the Russian air force is pulverising everything that moves, contributing to the unprecedented destruction of the Ukrainians.

The Ukrainians have already made a total conscription, a measure that shows Zelensky's desperation to hold a huge front into which the Russian army has secretly moved 150,000 troops and thousands of tanks, TOMA and self-propelled guns and surface-to-surface missiles.

Moscow's Direct Threat to Three NATO Countries

"Moscow will consider the possible use of F-16 fighters from air bases in Poland, Romania and Slovakia as its participation in the conflict in Ukraine," the head of the Russian delegation to the Vienna negotiations on military security and arms control, Konstantin Gavrilov, said, speaking at the 1065th plenary session of the OSCE Forum for Security Cooperation.

"We strongly warn that the use of these fighters from the territory of these NATO member countries will be seen by Moscow as their participation in the conflict in Ukraine and will force Russia to take retaliatory measures," he said.

As the Russian diplomat noted, opinions began to emerge that in conditions of significant destruction of airfields in the territories of the former USSR, since F-16 aircraft transferred to the Ukrainian Armed Forces could take off from air bases in Poland, Romania and Slovakia.

As he noted, opinions began to emerge that in conditions of significant destruction of airfields in these countries, since F-16s transferred to the Ukrainian Armed Forces could take off from air bases in Poland, Romania and Slovakia.

Gavrilov pointed out that "the United States and its satellites" continue to create security threats on Russia's western border."

He added that the aggressive character of Western policy is no longer hidden behind formulations about the exclusively defensive orientation of military doctrines.

"The national doctrinal guidelines and the guidelines of the NATO coalition of states establish claims to global and regional dominance, which they plan to achieve using military power," Gavrilov explained.

To date, the Netherlands and Denmark, among Western countries, have agreed to transfer F-16s to Ukraine.

In particular, the Netherlands expects to send the first fighters to Kiev in 2024.

The Washington Post, citing an unnamed US official, reported that the transfer of F-16s would not provide Kiev with the desired air superiority, as Russian air defense systems are very effective.
