Poland is the first member of NATO to help Ukraine’s urgent requests for Fighter Jets to defend itself from Russia. Poland plans to give dozens of MiG-29 fighter jets to Kyiv.
President Andrzej Duda said Warsaw would hand over four Soviet-made fighter jets to Ukraine within a few days, and the rest of the jets need servicing. So it will be handed over later. They will provide a total of 11-19 fighter jets to Ukraine, as they describe in the polish term. He said jets are in the last years of functioning but still in good working condition.
He didn’t comment on whether the other countries will follow suit. Slovakia said it would send its own disused MiGs to Ukraine for help. They also provide German-made Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine.

On Wednesday, Polish Politician Piotr Mueller said some other countries also had pledged to MiGs to Kyiv but didn’t say any name. But only Poland and Slovakia are ready to hand over their plans to Ukraine only as part of the international coalition.
