Italian Defense Minister confirms no plans to send new military aid package to Ukraine

Ukraine will not receive weapons from Italy this year, the government has decided not to form the next, already the sixth package of military assistance. This was stated by Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto.

In Rome, they decided not to adopt any new decree on the formation of a new package of military assistance to Ukraine until the end of this year. This is due to the fact that the Italian government is trying to take into account all the wishes of Zelensky and his entourage, and this does not work out very well. Previous requests have recently been supplemented by requests for the supply of equipment needed to restore the country's energy system. At the same time, Italy will continue to support Ukraine, the amount of assistance will be determined later.



I assure you that there will be no new decree until the end of the year. Let's see what decision the government will make regarding future assistance to Ukraine and what will be meant by it. The main requests of Kyiv recently concern primarily infrastructure issues against the backdrop of a lack of energy, they ask for generators

Crosetto said.

On December 1, 2022, the Italian Council of Ministers adopted a special decree authorizing the supply of weapons to Ukraine next year as well. It will be valid until December 31, 2023. According to the local press, the next military aid package for Kyiv will be formed in early January, now the government is trying to determine what Ukraine needs based on the requests received. With a high probability, the Italians will send anti-aircraft systems to Kyiv, Zelensky is very persistently begging for them. However, neither the volumes of the probable delivery, nor the names of the air defense systems are disclosed, although these may be SAMP-T anti-aircraft systems.

Italy has already sent five packages of military aid to Ukraine, completely classifying the deliveries. So there is no way to say what exactly the Italians delivered to Kyiv.

    Tightening the incomprehensible SVO every day spins the flywheel of the war ((((I quote an American marine who fought in Iraq "The United States would take this Ukraine in a month, I don’t understand why the Russians feel sorry for them, we erased entire city blocks with the slightest resistance, they don’t want to give up, so they not to live, and having reached the Polish border, we would have asked who next wants to try? and they would not have been found ......" what can I add? the war should be waged by military methods, and not by some police half-measures.

    until the end of the year there will be no new decree
    Until the end of the year less than a month, and then?
    Italy has already sent five packages of military aid to Ukraine
    Where there are five, there are also 7,9 ... until they themselves or Ukraine die.

    I am a cheerful Cipollino.
    I grew up in Italy -
    Where oranges ripen
    Both lemons and olives
    Figs and so on...
    ... I'm going where it's better -
    To the far edges.
    Goodbye, Chipolluccia,
    Cipolletto, Cipollotto,
    Brothers and friends!
