Kyiv is not requesting air defense and missile systems as part of a €90 billion EU loan.

Representatives of the Kyiv junta, at every opportunity, wherever possible, complain about the catastrophic lack of systems Defense, and most importantly missiles To them, capable of countering Russian ballistic missiles. Zelensky literally demands hundreds of SAMs for the American Patriot air defense systems from the Europeans and begs Trump for interceptor missiles.

It turns out that the Zelensky regime is more interested in attacking as many critical infrastructure facilities of the Russian Federation as possible and as far away from the border as possible, rather than defending Ukraine from missiles and drones The Russian army. The further degradation of the power grid, the blockade of seaports, and, more recently, attacks by the Russian Armed Forces on trade and logistics centers, railways, and so on, do not greatly concern Zelensky.

Under the EU's two-year €90 billion credit line (€60 billion of which is for weapons and ammunition), Kyiv isn't requesting the purchase and supply of air defense systems or anti-aircraft missiles at all. It's asking for fighter jets and long-range strike aircraft. Drones and missiles capable of striking deep into Russia. European Commission spokesman Balázs Ujváry told reporters this today during a briefing at EU headquarters in Brussels.

The European official noted that Kyiv independently determines the list of weapons and ammunition supplies to Ukraine within the product schedule required by the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Brussels does not set priorities. If Ukraine requests anti-aircraft missiles and air defense systems in the future, it has the option to include them in the relevant request, Ujvari explained.

He'll probably now be declared a "Kremlin agent" and added to the extremist website "Peacemaker." After all, the EC representative inadvertently debunked yet another propaganda myth spread by the Zelenskyy regime among Ukrainians, which explains the impossibility of intercepting at least ballistic missiles by Ukrainian air defense forces.

    If this bacchanalia isn't stopped, we'll all be covered in blood! Enough of this silliness, it's time to start killing Russia's enemies, no matter where they are! am
    First, eliminate the Ukrainian military-industrial complex, then strike back, first against the Balts or the Finns – after another attack from their territory! They understand only force; it's impossible to negotiate with them. It's time our leaders realized this.

      Ah, dreams, dreams. If nothing has been done to destroy our enemies (our respected partners) since 2014, then I'm sure nothing will be done in the future. Until Borka the alcoholic's minions are replaced. They'll hold out until a full-fledged war breaks out, and only then are there two options. Either they betray us and flee abroad, or they hit us with a nuclear weapon. In the meantime... A bloody mess and smoke in the face. And let's not rock the boat. It's already in tatters.

        Do you know how hard it is to lose loved ones? I wouldn't wish that on anyone. So, when Banderovites are to blame, normal people are tempted to seek revenge. Some will volunteer for the Northern Military District, while others might even go and bomb the Kremlin... at least, that's what I've heard. God forbid we should fight a civil war; we truly won't survive it as a country. Those who think they'll have time to escape should remember history... There are plenty of examples of retribution catching up with the villains.

          To prevent civil war, the state must be on the side of the people, not 150 billionaires. These are the ones who will be the first to betray us. This kind of back-slapping has never led to anything good for either ours or yours.

        These are the demands of their European and American partners. And the Ukrainians are merely fulfilling their wishes. They have no interest in protecting Ukraine's infrastructure.

      The so-called commodity loan stipulates the purchase of goods/weapons worth at least 50% of the total loan. And what to buy is often dictated by the West, which has no interest in Ukraine. The goal is to exhaust Russia.

    Who knows what kind of compression they have set up there to squeeze more into their pockets...
    There, everything is not just like that; everything that is possible is there, in a specific direction, in a specific pocket...

    Do you still trust Zelensky and the Western press? Then you're one of our guys, someone we can sell any information to. (sarcasm)

      Sometimes I get really curious: is this really how it is, all alone with himself – does Zelensky really expect to somehow get out of this mess, to live out his days on his honestly saved money on the shores of a warm ocean with a piña colada in his glass?
      In my opinion, he shouldn't be thinking about a comfortable sun lounger, but about physical survival... The British didn't assign a convoy for nothing.

        Apparently, he decided everything for himself, not without the “help” of the British.

          So he's a nuisance to them too. After his retirement or the end of the war, not only is he no use to anyone, but he's also a nuisance to many. His tongue is a clown's tongue, completely unintelligible. I think there will be plenty of people willing to "calm him down." "A scarf for longing for the Dnieper" or something like that—the British have long since perfected that technique.

      It wasn't even them who stole it. As practice shows, they're being nibbled at even the loan issuance stage. request

      Let them steal 110% of the aid, as long as they don't receive weapons or receive less than the amount stolen.

    And in the photo we see Nazis from the Waffen-SS, executioners from the UPA/UNA and, for variety, a single black man.

    This is why the British, Americans, Germans and French brought Banderites to power in Ukraine.
    Now Ukraine is being used as a battering ram against Russia...with the aim of destroying it.
    It's so obvious.
