    The Spin

    Democratic narrative

    This is nothing but a communication breakdown between Poland and the US. Although she was already on her way there for other matters, VP Kamala Harris has just touched down in Warsaw and these logistical issues regarding important support for Ukraine will soon be dealt with.

    Republican narrative

    In publicly offering to send its jets to a US airbase, Poland revealed the duplicity of the Biden administration. The Democrats want to draw the US and NATO into a wider conflict with Russia, but don't want any of the blame for it.

    Pro-establishment narrative

    The US is right to be wary of sending 28 Polish jets to Ukraine – it's a move that would bring small benefits on the battlefield and entail large risks of a wider war.
