Episode notes
There is a debate within the Biden administration about just how far the boundary can be pushed before risking escalation. Anything that the United States does preforce effects NATO, and so in NATO, you have the United States plus 29 other countries to consider. There's another reason that's pushing them toward the aircraft decision. The numbers vary, but 42 have been promised now, but I expect the number to be about 100. But they've provided also 150 or so maybe 200 Armored personnel carriers. These are very important systems, but if you need to give them the maximum protection and effectiveness, you need air support without that.
