Poland refused to transfer all the promised MiG-29 fighters to Ukraine at once

Ukraine's hopes for a one-time transfer of Polish MiG-29 fighters will not come true, Warsaw does not intend to give all its aircraft to Kyiv, at least for the time being. This was stated by the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland Pavel Yablonsky.

Poland does not disclose its plans to transfer MiG-29 fighters to Ukraine, citing the secrecy of information, but some part of this information in Warsaw was decided to be revealed a little, and it concerns the process of transferring aircraft. According to the Polish diplomat, Kyiv will not immediately receive all the fighters, the transfer will be carried out in batches, but only the Polish Ministry of Defense knows all the nuances of this deal.



I can't say exactly how this will happen. The Ministry of Defense still prefers to keep this case a secret.

Yablonsky said.

In the middle of this month, Polish Prime Minister Morawiecki promised to deliver planes to Ukraine within the next four to six weeks, but did not provide any other details. In total, the Polish Air Force is ready to transfer twenty MiG-29 fighters from its composition to Ukraine. Currently, the planes are located at the Malbork air base near the borders with the Russian Kaliningrad region, where they were transferred at the end of last year.

Another thirteen MiG-29 fighters were promised to Kyiv by Slovakia, and four of them have already been delivered. Something is wrong with the rest, or they need repair, or maybe something else.

Some Ukrainian media, commenting on Yablonsky's statement, suggested that Poland would transfer only part of the promised aircraft to Ukraine, leaving the rest to itself. True, it is not known for what needs, because Great Britain has already promised Warsaw to compensate for all the aircraft transferred to Ukraine from its stocks.

      Poland, with the stubbornness of an insane patient, is striving to be included in the list of the most likely and significant targets for tactical nuclear weapons deployed by Russia in Belarus.

        I think that there is already a question of a strategic shock 100+ kt, tactical 10-25kt, this is a front-line option.

      Some of these aircraft have NATO electronics installed and they probably want to remove it before shipping, or at least what can be removed. The second moment, they are waiting for the delivery of FA-50s from Korea, as soon as they receive the planes, the rest of the MiGs will be handed over. I think this is more of a question of the coming weeks, and all "problems" are an element of hostile propaganda.

        Well, then tell us, dear dill fosterling, why did Poland suddenly bill the EU for 2 billion euros for the equipment and weapons supplied to the Svidomites? Maybe this, in your opinion, too - "enemy propaganda"?
        But it seems to me that the pans with this "aircraft" bargaining are throwing fishing rods to establish a "protectorate over the so-called" eastern krozes "... Or does it only seem to me alone? and the" fraternal "love of the pan gentry for the Ukrainian cattle became crystal clear and disinterested, like a tear of a newborn???
        That's it! You have to pay for everything, they think in Warsaw. It is only "Russian half-wits" who can, without batting an eyelid, 20 billion dollars each. forgive some Africans at a time!

          Please clarify what exactly do you mean by "protectorate"?
          Accession of this territory to Poland?
          Please do not expose the Poles as complete idiots who are suddenly ready to put a couple of million Ukrainians on their necks FOREVER. But people will not disappear anywhere from this territory, they will stay there to live.

          Why do the Poles need this, in their practically mono-ethnic state, to suddenly have a densely populated national Ukrainian minority?

      The Poles will first provide for their loved ones, and then they will transfer something. What England has promised, they have been waiting for the promised for three years. So the Poles slowed down.

        I think the closer the hypothetical conflict between Poland and Russia is, the tighter the Poles will be.

      - recourse This is unfair. Got it, go! feelMost likely, the Poles conceived a micro-modernization for new weapons, from the USA or England. recourse

      Attack on a NATO country? Oh well. Then it’s not worth it to waste time on trifles at once, all the strategic nuclear weapons are in action, and the whole world is in ruins)))

        Timur, do you think that Poland, having become a member of NATO, did not put objects on its territory under the gun of our Aerospace Forces (RVSN)? I assure you it is not. Everything has long been "listed according to notes" - in the first, second and next stages ... for a date with the ancestors ... Yes
        But at the expense of the whole world - no need to rush. Not the fact that the same UK (or there the USA) will immediately fit into this "hyena of Europe" if the Russian Bear knocks on her tambourine?
        Naglia and the frogs had already once thrown her to be devoured by the demon-possessed Fuhrer. Now panism tearfully asks Uncle Sam to order the Deutschers to pay an indemnity for the losses suffered by Poland during WWII. And these are members of the same "Atlantic Treaty" ... So, not everything is so simple "in the kingdom of Denmark" (c).
        AHA.

      They will be delivered as they are disposed of by the Aerospace Forces and Air Defense of the Russian Federation.
