The German Ministry of Defense denied that it has transferred the Patriot missile system to Ukraine.

The German Ministry of Defense said it did not know that the President of the United States claimed that Germany had already provided the Patriot system to Ukraine!

After the President of the United States stated that NATO had begun transferring the Patriot missile system to Ukraine, a spokesperson for the German Ministry of Defense, Mitko Mueller, clarified this, stating that the delivery might start in several months.

"Specific terms, including which systems will be provided before negotiations, I cannot confirm that anything is on the way now, I don't know."

Mueller emphasized that the actual delivery of the Patriot system to Ukraine may take several months, as it is a system that cannot simply be taken off the shelf. The process of coordinating the delivery of the Patriot air defense missile system within the framework of the U.S. and NATO agreement is still ongoing, and the German Ministry of Defense does not know that the delivery has already started.
