Recall
US President Donald Trump announced the preparation for the supply of 17 Patriot systems to Ukraine, which will begin arriving soon.
Some of them (Patriot systems - ed.) will arrive very soon, within a few days, in fact. Several countries that have Patriots will exchange them, and we will replace the Patriots with those they have, and Matt will coordinate actions with NATO. But one way or another, they will start arriving soon
