Warsaw officially agreed to the general transfer of MiG-29 fighters to Ukraine. However, now the decision is up to Bratislava.
This was announced by the Minister of Defense of Slovakia. Yaroslav Nagy emphasized that it was time to make a decision regarding the MiG-29.
“We can really help”
“I confirm that Poland has officially agreed to send MiG-29s together,” Nagy wrote. He added that this decision was announced by his Polish counterpart at a meeting of EU defense ministers in Sweden on Wednesday.
I think it's time to make a decision. People are dying in Ukraine, we can really help them, there is no place for Slovak politicization. This is humane and irresponsible,” Yaroslav Nagy emphasized.
