Gavrilov.

This is coolbert:

“We strongly warn that the use of these fighters [F-16] from the territory of these NATO member countries will be considered by Moscow as their participation in the conflict in Ukraine and will force Russia to respond,” - Gavrilov.

Gavrilov the Russian speaks! That entire entity of NATO, needs to listen very carefully and pay proper heed. The Russian has issued warnings on many occasions, and so far even when red lines are crossed nothing adverse has occurred but sooner or later it will if NATO is not careful.

"Russia warns: Taking off of F-16s from Poland and Romania amounts to participation in the conflict in Ukraine"

"'Moscow will be forced to respond'"

From https://www.agenzianova.com | December 13 2023.

 "Russia will consider the possible dispatch of F-16 fighter jets from air bases in Poland, Romania and Slovakia as the involvement of these countries in the conflict in Ukraine. This was stated by the head of the Russian delegation during the negotiations in Vienna on military security and arms control, Konstantin Gavrilov, speaking at the plenary session of the OSCE forum on cooperation in the security sector."

Does everyone understand that an attack on NATO air bases where F-16 fighter planes are flying from will be considered an Article 5 item of the NATO charter a response of some sort will be required by each and every nation that is a constituent member of the NATO alliance a most serious venture for all.
