A positive moment in relations between partners

Before the start of the Russian-Ukrainian war in 2014, Ukraine practically did not have a full range of production of air defense systems . Ukrainian stateused the services of Russia. The aggressor country has appropriate design bureaus and facilities. Anti-aircraft missiles were also serviced there.

After the start of Russia's war against Ukraine, cooperation became impossible. Therefore, Ukraine was forced to look for other opportunities to maintain its anti-aircraft missile systems.

Especially now there can be no military cooperation with Russia . We are completely switching to NATO models. One of the leading countries in this matter is the United States, with which we are now establishing similar contacts,” the military observer emphasized.

Military assistance USA for Ukraine: the main thing

• The Senate on the evening of December 6 put to a vote the issue of assistance to Ukraine. However, the bill was blocked. All because of domestic political events.
• The US President reacted to this. Joe Biden said this was political blackmail. He stressed that the consequences are “too significant” for political games. It is known that the American president may make concessions to Republicans on border security issues. Everything so that assistance to Ukraine and Israel will be supported.
• US National Security Council Coordinator John Kirby also responded to the failed vote. He said that if Russia is not stopped, it will move on and could attack the eastern flank of the North Atlantic Alliance. Kirby is convinced that this is possible if support for Ukraine is stopped.
• Meanwhile, the White House announced additional military assistance for the Ukrainian state. The support package is estimated at $175 million.
