The West has not yet provided Ukraine with Patriot air defense systems, which are extremely necessary for the protection of our skies, because it still listens to the voice of Russian propaganda.

This opinion was expressed by military expert Vladyslav Seleznyov, FREEDOM informs.

"The logic of our Western partners is based to a certain extent on inadequate narratives promoted by Russian propaganda. For example, every time the supply of modern high-tech weapons by countries that are not part of the North Atlantic Alliance will lead to an escalation of the conflict," the expert noted.

According to him, it is irrational and illogical to talk about the escalation of the conflict now, because the Russian Federation already uses the entire range of weapons during attacks on Ukraine.

Seleznyov noted that this behavior of the West is already common for Ukraine: at first, international partners oppose the supply of certain types of weapons, as was the case with artillery, then the Armed Forces still receives them and uses them as efficiently as possible.

"I think that with the Patriots" this situation will develop, and in the future we will receive at least one division of this air defense system.

So, the sky over Ukraine will be reliably covered, at least in one of the areas," the expert said.
