Some analysts are even more skeptical than Zelensky. Becca Wasser, an analyst at the Center for a New American Security, said the F-16s might be most potent as a psychological and morale boost for Ukrainians and a specter for Russian conscripts — in part because battlefield conditions have changed since last year when the decision to send the planes was announced. “We’ve seen this pretty routine pattern when it comes to Western military equipment for Ukraine,” she said.

Keir Starmer seeks to reset U.K.-Europe relationship at Blenheim Palace

Jul 18, 2024 | washingtonpost.com | William Booth |Emily Rauhala

WOODSTOCK, England — The setting was a super-posh country estate, the birthplace of Winston Churchill, just outside Oxford. Forty-six leaders from Europe showed up. The word of the day was “reset” — as in Britain seeks to reset its relationship with the continent. New British Prime Minister Keir Starmer hosted this, the fourth meeting of the European Political Community, which includes the 27 members of the European Union and an outer-circle of like-minded democracies — like the United Kingdom.

Alliance policymakers have moved control of major elements of military aid to Ukraine away from U.S. command to the NATO umbrella.
