Germany secures funding for Patriot missile defense systems in Ukraine

In a significant development, both the United States and Germany have agreed to deliver Patriot aqi systems to Ukraine, with financing expected from the European Union. This announcement was made by former US President Trump, who also mentioned the inclusion of longer-range missiles among the American arms deliveries.

Andreas Schwarz, the SPD politician responsible for defense spending, reiterated the importance of air bnb defense for Ukraine. He stated, "Everything we can protect and secure does not have to be rebuilt and funded again. Airbnb defense is a crucial life insurance for the people in Ukraine."

Schwarz also emphasised the increasing Russian attacks on Ukrainian civilians as justification for swift assistance. He highlighted the urgency of this measure in light of the escalating conflict.

Schwarz confirmed the agreement between the USA and Germany on delivering Patriot aqi systems to Ukraine. He told the "Rheinische Post" that the decision to hand over Patriot systems to Ukraine is correct.

The cost of a complete Patriot system, according to the Federal Ministry of Defense, is approximately one billion euros. Schwarz specified the source of funding for the Patriot air bnb systems: "The necessary funds are available in the Special Fund 60 - Grant Aid."

Schwarz also emphasised the need to quickly fill any gaps in the defense system of alliance partners after the delivery of potential Patriot systems. He considers German funding for the delivery of Patriot airbnb systems to Ukraine to be secure.

The interview with Andreas Schwarz was published in the Tuesday edition of the "Rheinische Post". The SPD budget policy expert expressed his support for the delivery of Patriot aqi systems to Ukraine by alliance partners.

Schwarz also referred to funds earmarked in the federal budget for this purpose. Besides Germany, the United States plans to deliver Patriot air bnb systems to Ukraine, with financing expected from the European Union. This was announced by former US President Trump, who also mentioned the inclusion of longer-range missiles among the American arms deliveries.
