A bipartisan group of congressional lawmakers are urging President Biden to stop being a stumbling block to Poland’s offer to send MiG-29 jet fighters to the “heroic” Ukrainian forces.
The pols urged Biden to take immediate steps to supply Ukraine with missile defense systems and drones as well in their fight against the Russian invasion.
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky has repeatedly pleaded with the US and its allies to allow Poland to deploy the aircraft to help repel Russia’s invasion, but Biden warned that the planes could provoke Russian leader Vladimir Putin and potentially expand the war into Europe and even spark World War III.
The 58 members of the House Problem Solvers Caucus called the transfer of the Soviet-era MiG fighters necessary for Ukrainians to help control the skies and defend their country.
