Poland is willing to give MiG-29 fighter planes to Ukraine, but wants a guarantee from the White House that it will provide U.S.-made fighter jets to fill the gap in their fleet.

@andreasveg @POLITICOEurope Good point

@JoeClitherow @POLITICOEurope I hear you

@andreasveg @POLITICOEurope Some of us know this all too well, it is part of why the lack of deployment is so frustrating. Can you imagine what the Polish Airforce would have done to that immobile Russian column? If not for Putin's Nuclear threat, this battle would be over.

@andreasveg @POLITICOEurope The illustrious Polish 303 squadron was tops in that battle, the very best, mad dogs in the sky!

@andreasveg @POLITICOEurope This is why I simply do not understand the retort that Poland simply cannot bare to “lose” a handful of fighter jets out of fear that they couldn’t defend themselves. NATO mbrship & strength of their military alone vitiates that argument.Don’t wait on US bureaucracy to work

@andreasveg @POLITICOEurope Polish pilots are some of the best in the world! Saved our ass in Ww2 here in England

@andreasveg @POLITICOEurope Yes that was a great story. I saw the movie based off of that squadron.
