USA to supply Ukraine with Patriot missiles every month – Zelenskyy
The United States and Ukraine have reached an agreement on monthly deliveries of missiles for the Patriot system, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that the United States and Ukraine have agreed to provide monthly deliveries of Patriot missiles. These anti-missile systems are primarily manufactured in the United States. Zelenskyy confirmed that the US is supplying these missiles every month, as per existing agreements. However, he noted that the number of these missiles has decreased significantly compared to 2025.
Zelenskyy also mentioned that Germany and Poland possess such missiles and can contribute to Ukraine's defense. He expressed gratitude to Germany and Poland for their assistance, but emphasized that the Nordic countries and the Netherlands are also providing support, albeit on a smaller scale. The Ukrainian leader stressed that continuous dialogue with various European and Middle Eastern countries is essential to ensure Ukraine receives additional aid packages beyond the existing framework.
South Korea and Japan, among others, have not yet provided air defense systems due to their domestic laws. Zelenskyy also mentioned ongoing discussions with Israel regarding the possibility of receiving air defense systems, although no decisions have been made yet.
