Verkhovna Rada MP Oleksandr Fedienko has said that the Ukrainian Armed Forces receive “not weapons but scrap metal” from Western partners, which takes months to restore.
“From what I saw on the fronts, in the repair facilities there were no modern weapons <…> they collect some scrap metal all over the world,” Oleksandr Fedienko said in an interview with the Ukrainian YouTube channel Superposition.
The MP noted that even the supplied Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft self-propelled launchers are weapons from the 60-70s.
According to Fedienko, the restoration of equipment takes “three, four, five, maybe six months”.
We shall remind you that earlier the Norwegian Defence Ministry said that the authorities of Denmark, Norway and Sweden would allocate about 146m dollars for the purchase of US military aid for Ukraine.
