Russia's deputy foreign minister has warned Western countries of 'enormous risks' if Ukraine is provided with F-16 fighter jets, Russian state media TASS reported Saturday.
"enormous risks" if Ukraine is provided with F-16 fighter jets, Russian state media TASS reported Saturday.

But the U.S. would have to approve that third-party transfer because of the jets' sensitive U.S. technology.
