❗️U.S. foreign policy elite call for limited no-fly zone over Ukraine.
In an open letter to the Biden administration, a group of 27 foreign policy leaders is urging the U.S. to impose a limited no-fly zone over Ukraine, citing the need to protect humanitarian corridors.
Their justification sounds strange, and here’s why:
While both sides of the conflict have accused each other of obstructing the proper functioning of civilian evacuation routes, there have been absolutely no reports of humanitarian corridors coming under attack from the air.

❗️U.S. rescinds support for Polish plan to supply fighter jets to Ukraine.
On Sunday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated that Washington had green lighted a plan for Poland to provide its MiG-29s to Kiev.
Now the Pentagon says the planes wouldn't actually help Ukraine's defenses much, but would risk a “significant” Russian reaction.

On Tuesday, Victoria Nuland went before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and confirmed the existence of Biological Research facilities operated by the US government in Ukraine.
Russian claims about such BioLabs were previously dismissed, with many on twitter and in the mainstream media decrying Russia's allegations as "propaganda" and "disinformation", as reported by Glenn Greenwald.
The exact nature of these BioLabs and the research being conducted there is not clear, though documents suggest it involves dangerous pathogens. Victoria Nuland states the US is working with Ukraine to prevent materials from falling into Russian hands, and the Pentagon program behind the Labs is officially "sensitive information".
