The Pentagon called Poroshenko’s premature statement on the supply of weapons
28
The United States Department of Defense considers it premature for the Ukrainian leader, Petro Poroshenko, to deliver the American weapons soon, transmits RIA News.
Regarding the supply of arms, it’s premature to talk about when it will be,
said the Pentagon press officer.
Recall yesterday Poroshenko told reporters at a press conference that "the first batch of defensive weapons from the United States will go (to Ukraine) in a few weeks."
In addition, the president said that this year he expects a number of military supplies.
As previously reported, the White House issued a permit for the supply of arms to Kiev at the end of last year. In particular, we can talk about sniper rifles and anti-tank complexes Javelin. Earlier, the Ukrainian authorities have repeatedly announced fast deliveries of American weapons.
Moscow opposes the supply, fearing that they will provoke a worsening of the situation in the east of Ukraine.
