Пане Президенте!
Насамперед ми хотіли б подякувати вам, Міністрові оборони Ллойдові Остіну, Державному секретареві Ентоні Блінкену, та широкій двопартійній коаліції в Конгресі за непохитну підтримку України і за лідерство, яке Сполучені Штати знову взяли на себе заради захисту фундаментальних принципів Статуту Організації Об’єднаних Націй. Як і Ви, ми віримо, що, як влучно висловився генерал Крістофер Каволі, «У цій війні Росія не може здобути перемоги, наше майбутнє цього просто не знесе.»
Ми часто хочеться, щоб допомога, яка надається Україні, була швидшою та масштабнішою. Однак ми добре розуміємо, що Ви володієте інформацією, якої в нас немає, і що Вам довелося багато працювати, щоб створити коаліцію Рамштайн і зробити її згуртованішою.
Сьогодні ми Вам пишемо, тому що стурбовані. Перед українськими збройними силами в найближчі місяці стоятиме величезне завдання. Є ризик невдач і часткових успіхів. І, як неодноразово нагадував нам генерал Марк Міллі, ніколи не слід недооцінювати військові можливості РФ. Іншими словами, немає гарантії, що війна не триватиме і після 2023 року.
Як відомо, Головнокомандувач Збройних сил України генерал Валерій Залужний і багато українських військових і політичних керівників уважають, що вирішальне значення для швидкого завершення війни має постачання західних літаків. А ще, як заявили Генеральний секретар НАТО Єнс Столтенберг та міністр закордонних справ Сполученого Королівства Джеймс Клеверлі, єдиною реальною гарантією безпеки України у середньостроковій та довгостроковій перспективі є її членство в Атлантичній організації, навіть якщо воно стане можливим лише наприкінці війни. Ми не сумніваємося, що з цього приводу формується широкий консенсус. Ми тієї думки, що держави, які заблокували цей процес у 2008 році на саміті НАТО в Бухаресті й, отже, несуть тепер серйозну відповідальність за війну, що триває, діятимуть обачно, аби не стати йому на заваді знову.
Ми свідомі того, що використання сучасних західних літаків вимагає ґрунтовної підготовки пілотів і складної логістики. Проте ми також знаємо, що українські військові, які мають потужну мотивацію, продемонстрували свою надзвичайну здатність до навчання.
Ваше схвалення як лідера коаліції «Рамштайн» і як президента держави, яка виробляє літаки F-16, що їх більш за все хоче одержати українське військове керівництво, має важливе значення.
Через шість місяців коаліція "Рамштайн" має бути в змозі ухвалити рішення – з огляду на військово-політичну ситуацію, що склалася, щодо постачання цих F-16 Вашою країною й тими європейськими країнами, які їх мають. Тому нам здається, що конче треба невідкладно ухвалити рішення про підготовку близько ста українських пілотів; сформувати логістичний ланцюжок, що його долучать до постачання близько ста літаків; встановити кількість літаків, які кожна держава-член НАТО могла б зрештою постачити восени 2023 року; і підготувати ці літаки.
Ми дякуємо Вам за те, що Ви робите все від Вас залежне для досягнення цих цілей найближчим часом, і просимо Вас, пане Президенте, прийняти наші запевнення в високій повазі –
