The United States has given the green light to the Netherlands and Denmark to provide Ukraine with 42 F-16 fighter jets. This, as NATO continues to supply Kiev with whatever it can in order to help it defeat Russia.

Hundreds of billions of dollars worth of weapons and military supplies have already been given to Ukraine to support its summer offensive that hasn’t accomplished much. Will this new development end up being a game changer for Kiev? And how will Moscow respond to it?

This edition of the Spotlight program focuses on the US' green light to the Netherlands and Denmark to hand over fighter jets to Ukraine. The program discusses whether or not this development could be a game changer.
