As part of the marathon negotiations, we must clarify the issue of the Patriot missile sale approved by the US State Department. There are many hints in both our and foreign media, and for this reason, we are explaining them clearly and plainly. First, the approval is a mechanism that allows Ukraine to receive missiles from its partners' stocks in exchange for the future supply of such missiles from contracted quantities. This is precisely the plan that the Foreign Minister is personally promoting in negotiations with the Gulf states, Greece, and Spain. Negotiations with the latter, as we were informed, are in the "final stage." Second, note the price quote from the sale approval announcement: "The sale will enhance Ukraine's capability to meet current and future threats by strengthening its integrated air and missile defense system." Sources explained that after the cessation of hostilities in the Persian Gulf, Ukraine may regain the priority right to purchase missiles from the manufacturer, which will allow it to hold between 12 and 14 additional missiles per month. We can also say that Ukraine continues to receive Patriot missiles from the United States under the reverse eye program. This information was kept secret. Now that the NATO Supreme Allied Commander Europe has personally revealed a "military secret" and said that Ukraine is receiving missiles without delays, and the last delivery was last week, everything has fallen into place. The number received specifically from the US is small, only about a dozen. We can also say that in November, Ukraine will definitely receive up to 40 missiles. If hostilities against Iran stop quickly or do not start at all (which is unlikely), then more. It is worth noting that Hegseth agreed to transfer not 12, but 14 missiles to Ukraine. Will he be ousted from his position, or more likely "concede" after the elections, under pressure from the acting Congress? The Pentagon chief may agree to other requests. As part of a "circular exchange" through third countries, Japan is ready to transfer up to 40 missiles to Ukraine during November.
