Borrell criticised Western partners for their reluctance to hand over the Patriot air defence system to Ukraine

The head of EU foreign diplomacy, Josep Borrell, noted that Ukraine urgently needs seven additional Patriot systems to protect large cities from air attacks by the criminal army of the Russian Federation. Still, European countries are unable to provide them to Kyiv.

It is inconceivable that we would not be able to provide them, given that Western armies have about 100 Patriot batteries. And yet we are not able to provide the seven batteries they are desperately asking for, Borrell stressed.
