There is some fog of war about what is happening with these Polish Mig-29s. My guess
- US thinks any NFZ is unacceptable
- POL has wanted to send them for a week
- US secretly armtwisted POL into stopping
- Neither US nor POL will disclose the details of the armtwisting 1/

- POL is desperate to send them
- US has been flooding American media with propaganda equating NFZ with nuclear disaster
- What POL has now done is to "out" the US' armtwisting without disclosing details
2/

- POL now unlinks the issue of backfill with F16s etc.
- As GHW Bush wld have said, "no linkage! no linkage!"
- And Germany says it will accept anyone's jets for deployment to UKR
- Shoe now on other foot
