Italy is preparing a new weapons package for Ukraine, which includes various air defense systems, Reuters reports, citing a non-representative of Italy’s ruling coalition.
According to him, Rome is ready to provide Ukraine with various air defense systems, including the French-Italian medium-range SAMP / T and Italian Aspide, as well as Stinger portable missiles.
