Ukraine is facing a dire situation with Russia's organized protracted war and a lack of serious mass opposition to Putin, while Macron's recent gaffe has worsened the country's position. The addition of F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine's arsenal will help even the odds, but using these "high maintenance" jets in wartime will be challenging. Additionally, a dual US citizen has been arrested by Russia on treason charges for allegedly fundraising for Ukraine.
