On Friday, the Danish defense minister, Jakob Ellemann-Jensen, told the broadcaster DR that Denmark is “open” to sending fighter planes to Ukraine to assist in battling the Russian incursion.

“At some point it may be essential to look at the participation of fighter planes,” interim Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen stated.

According to the armed services, Denmark bought 77 F-16 airplanes during the 1970s. Local media reports 30 are in operation.

Ukraine has this year asked Western allies for more advanced weapons, including fighter jets.

Western countries that have provided Ukraine with arms have refused to send fighter jets or long-range weapons capable of striking deep inside Russia.
