Germany will help Ukraine to obtain five Patriot missile systems as soon as possible!
German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius stated that Germany will help Ukraine to obtain 5 Patriot air defense systems as soon as possible, and at the same time, Berlin will also fund the purchase of long-range drones produced in Ukraine.
Pistorius believes it is necessary to ensure the strengthening of Ukraine's air defense assets: "During my visit to Washington last week, I reached an agreement with the head of the Pentagon, General Hagel, that Germany will provide five urgently needed Patriot systems for Ukraine as soon as possible. We will closely coordinate our actions in the coming days with a spirit of mutual trust to determine how to achieve this goal."
"In addition, we will provide 220,000 dollars worth of 35mm ammunition for the Gepard air defense system in a short period of time, together with our British friends, which will be funded by Germany."
Pistorius emphasized that Germany will fund the purchase of long-range drones produced in Ukraine: "This is why we fund the comprehensive procurement of long-range drones produced in Ukraine, which have already proven their effectiveness on the battlefield."
