  1. Patriots are a very cost inefficient way of shooting down drones/glide bombs. You feel like there must be cheaper alternatives. 

  2. good thing we have got the number to 25 time to get em that last bit and give em what else they need .im sure we could ramp up production in finland a bit more for everything ,just in case

  3. Ukraine isn’t in nato. Why is America wasting hard earned dollars on this?

    Edit, keep justifying your country throwing away billions of your hard earned money. Think of what your country could do with all that money going into millionaires pockets and going straight to a country that shouldn’t even be getting help! Waste of cash imo

  4. Ukraine needs to sit down with Russia and negotiate an end to the conflict.

    There, fixed the article title for you.

  5. Here comes Zelensky again, with his hand out, “gimme, gimme, gimme”…
    There’s literally no end in site. End the war; negotiate.

  6. He wants weapons so why doesn’t reach out to isreal and buy weapons from them

  7. Here’s to hoping we can collectively help them. I know these are big ticket items but I think they’re tip of the iceberg.

    All weapons and defensive systems are surely needed. As I’m an individual I can’t unfortunately contribute to that, but I just made sure to donate to humanitarian aid, also very much needed.

    I also donated to local drives, and looking forward to more recent drives, since they’re looking to treat Ukrainian bombing victims here in Finland. Yes, this includes the children’s hospital casualties.

    It’s heartbreaking, this war shit. We can’t forget this going on, since it’s part of Russia’s tactic, to make us tired and bored of their atrocities. Same thing for Palestine.

    Sorry for the ramble, but this still cuts deep for me.

  8. I’m a staunch supporter of Ukraine. But 25? That feels like a lot, and very expensive

  9. Of course they need more. Send them billions more why don’t you?! We have unlimited money for this

  10. Does any collection of Nations even have 25 Patriot air defense systems they could give to Ukraine? That’s a lot of Patriot systems and I don’t know if that is doable number.

    Edit: Okay, just googled it, and apparently there are a lot more Patriot defense systems than I thought. So yeah, its a doable number.

  11. Hope it’s 25 launchers because otherwise it’s going to take forever to get to that point.

    F 16s are way overdue tho.

  12. Each Patriot missile system holds 16 missles. At $3 million a pop × 16 × 25 = $1,200,000,000.00, just for one round of ordances.

  13. It would still ultimately be just a band-aid still. What Ukraine needs is its own ballistic missiles without any restrictions on using them – to destroy airfields with strategic bombers, and facilities that store and produce russia’s own weapons. But unfortunately collective balls of western nations are way too small for it

  14. Part of it is being able to risk some to bring up to the Frontline and shoot down planes both launching glide bombs as well as transport aircraft

  15. The article mentions the US and NATO allies giving four, and I think I read Israel is giving them six. Hopefully they get what they need asap

  16. Ukraines got it. At 35 trillion in debt whats another few billion here and there 🤣
