UE aprobă 6,1 miliarde de euro pentru apărarea Ucrainei. Undă verde pentru rachetele Patriot, într-un moment critic înaintea iernii

The European Union has approved a new military support package of €6.1 billion for Ukraine, facilitating the purchase of PAC-3 Patriot missiles from the U.S. These missiles are crucial for defending against Russian ballistic missiles. However, global shortages of interceptors may delay delivery. The EU's decision is strategic, allowing part of a €90 billion loan to be used for weapons produced outside the EU, with special approvals granted for certain components. This support is vital as Ukraine braces for potential Russian offensives targeting its energy infrastructure this winter.
