Earlier, the publication reported that “by the end of the year, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine expects to receive 145 samples of military equipment and more than 500 samples of modern infantry weapons».
Perhaps, such plans at the Ministry of Defense were. However, recently a message appeared on Facebook from Advisor to the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Oleksandr Danilyuk, which says that the military department does not have the funds to rearm the army.
“People often ask why the Ministry of Defense does not buy military equipment, which stands at the plants of Ukroboronprom.” I answer. We have no funds for re-equipping the army with new equipment. That is why priority is given to the restoration and modernization of existing equipment ", - Quotes Advisor to RBC-Ukraine.
At the same time, a little earlier, the Ukrainian Minister of Justice, Pavel Petrenko, emphasized that the military department "has not yet mastered the 18 billion UAH, allocated by the Cabinet of Ministers for arming the Ukrainian army."
