Aleksey Pushkov, a member of the Federation Council Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Building, said that if NATO sends its pilots to Ukraine to control fighter jets, this will mean entry into the war.
Earlier, British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said that London would not supply Kyiv with Eurofighter Typhoon fighters, as this would require sending specialists such as pilots and engineers to Ukraine.
According to Pushkov, the problem is not that the NATO countries do not want to send planes to Ukraine, but that the participation of their crews in hostilities would mean NATO’s entry into the war.
The senator noted that it is impossible to train Ukrainian pilots to fly the F-16 or Rafale in a short time, and sending expensive equipment is unlikely, since Ukraine cannot pay for its cost. According to Pushkov, “strong deterrents” will prevent NATO from doing so.
