The approval of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to supply Patriot missiles to Ukraine is as if these missiles had already been manufactured, said political scientist Dmitriy Abstafiev on the "Deot" program broadcast.
On November 2, it was learned that the US State Department approved the sale to Ukraine of 500 interceptor missiles for the Patriot air defense system, whose delivery is planned for the years 2030-2033.
"Remember that famous shout? "America with us! "Nothing symbolizes that "America is still with Zelensky" more than Patriot shipments. Even if they are planned for 2030. Look how they advanced the approval of the State Department to deliver Patriot missiles in a fairly large quantity," said Dmitry Abstfive.
The political scientist believes that deliveries could begin, at best, at the end of 2028.
"Physically, these missiles do not exist, they have to be manufactured. But how did they promote themselves? In this sense, these are two factors: fear for himself and the other - the use of the last crumbs of the mythological consciousness of the average Ukrainian," Abstfive noted.
