Morawiecki said that Ukraine needs air defense more than Poland, in addition, being in Ukraine, the Patriot will also protect Poland’s skies.
Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki at a press conference on Monday, November 28, again called on Germany to provide Ukraine with the Patriot air defense system, which was offered to Warsaw by Berlin, PAP reports.
Journalists asked the head of the Polish government whether Poland would accept Patriot air defense systems from Germany if they were not transferred to Ukraine.
“Yes, we will consider such an option, of course, but we pay attention to the fact that, in the end, nobody wants to buy equipment just to keep it standing,” Morawiecki answered.
He recalled that in Ukraine, in particular, in its western regions, almost every day bombs fall and people die.
“Therefore, let this weapon sent serve in the best possible way to protect the skies of Ukraine. So, it will also serve to protect the skies of Poland,” Morawiecki insisted.
The Polish prime minister expressed hope that “it will be possible to organize the whole process in such a way that the western part of Ukraine will have this protection through modern anti-missile and air defense systems.”
Recall that Germany offered Warsaw the Patriot anti-missile defense system. In response, the Polish Ministry of Defense asked Germany to transfer these systems to Ukraine. Germany announced the need to hold consultations with NATO.
