"Preparations are underway, we are working very closely with the Germans on the transfer of Patriot," he said at a conference in the German city of Wiesbaden.
"The instructions I was given are to move as quickly as possible," Grynkewich noted.
Recall
US President Donald Trump previously stated that the first Patriot deliveries were already on their way from Germany. However, on July 16, the German Ministry of Defense said that Germany had no information about any current deliveries of the Patriot air defense system to Ukraine.
