Biden ‘rejects’ request for Ukrainian fighter support… Zelensky: “Russia’s great revenge has already begun”

US President Joe Biden announced yesterday (30th) that he will not provide F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine.

President Biden said “no” to reporters at the White House that day when asked if he would provide F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine.

Ukraine, which was promised tank support from the United States and Germany on the 25th, is asking Western countries to support fourth-generation fighters, including the F-16.

In response, French President Emmanuel Macron opened up the possibility of applying to reporters yesterday in The Hague, Netherlands, saying, “Nothing is excluded.”

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russian forces were fiercely attacking in the eastern provinces, in retaliation for earlier pushing back Russian forces from the capital, Kyiv, and the northeast and south.

“I think Russia really wants a big revenge,” Zelensky said.

Meanwhile, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said Russian forces had shelled more than 40 settlements in the Zaporizhia and southern Kherson regions of Ukraine.
