Greece will not transfer the S-300 or Patriot to Ukraine
May 9, 2024
Greece refuses to provide Ukrainian defenders with S-300 or Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems. It does not have such systems that could be given away.
According to RBC-Ukraine, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said this in an interview with protothema.
"We support Ukraine, and we have surplus defense equipment. And this does not apply to Patriot or S-300," the Greek prime minister said.
He also added that Greece still needs such air defense systems.
At the same time, the Greek prime minister emphasized that Ukraine should not lose the war, as it is the defending party.
And I understand Greece. One of the poorest countries in Europe is being forced to hand over arms to Ukraine. Why don't rich countries give us Patriots? The U.S. has over 1,000 of them.
