Out of all European militaries, Ukraine's armored forces stand as some of the strongest on the continent. With a tank force of more than 1,100, Ukraine has solidified its position as capable of sustaining prolonged operations with reasonable results against a far larger force.

NATO Allies Pledge 94 F-16s to Ukraine Raising Questions on Regional Security Gaps

As Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy put it, the arrival of the multirole jets represents a " new chapter " for the air force. The F-16's versatility opens up tactical and strategic possibilities that the older Soviet aircraft couldn't exploit. However, the donations of F-16s come with strings attached. The debate over whether or not to limit where the F-16s can operate could have a huge bearing on the conflict's outcome.

The statement said Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway, and the US Foreign Military Financing program would help pay for it. "This proposed sale will improve Ukraine's capability to meet current and future threats by further equipping it to conduct self-defense and regional security missions," the State Department statement said. Congress must still approve the sale for it to be final, though US lawmakers have never successfully blocked such proposed packages.

Trump needs to understand what the war in Ukraine is really about | Kenneth Roth

It may be difficult for a real-estate mogul like Donald Trump to recognize, but Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine is not about slices of war-torn land in eastern Ukraine. It is about Ukraine's democracy. Putin fears that the Russian people will see that democracy as an enticing alternative to his stultifying autocratic rule. Trump is unlikely to secure a peace deal unless he acts on that reality and changes the cost-benefit analysis behind Putin's continuing war.
