Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed his “deep gratitude” to Romanian counterpart Klaus Iohannis for the imminent transfer of a Patriot air defence system.
It is a significant contribution to protecting Ukraine “from Russian missile terror and further proof of the genuine friendship and strategic partnership between the two countries,” Zelensky wrote on X.
Iohannis signed a resolution by the Romanian parliament facilitating the transfer, which was announced in June.
Zelensky has repeatedly asked Ukraine’s partners for more air defence systems in order to better protect his people from constant Russian air and missile attacks.
Ukraine already has four complete Patriot air defence systems as well as additional launchers from the Netherlands. Three of the systems come from Germany, while Kiev received another from the US.
Further systems from Israeli stocks were under discussion, but the current status of the negotiations is unknown.
