Germany is said to have submitted the request several weeks ago.<\/p>\n “Kyiv had previously tried in vain to purchase Patriot systems directly from the United States and then turned to the German government,” Bild wrote.<\/p>\n After the United States announced a halt to certain weapon deliveries to Ukraine, Berlin fears that Washington may also reject the German request for two Patriot systems.<\/p>\n Bild reported that the issue had been discussed at Wednesday’s cabinet meeting, during which “it became clear that cancelled deliveries from the US cannot be compensated”.<\/p>\n “Nevertheless, Germany and other allies now want to try to provide Ukraine with at least Patriot systems from their own stocks,” Bild added.<\/p>\n Background<\/strong>:\u00a0<\/p>\n
