Re: The War in Ukraine
Patriot air defence systems move into Slovakia as Russia continues assault on neighbour Ukraine
Germany and the Netherlands have agreed to send troops armed with the Patriots to Slovakia
Slovakian Defence Minister Jaroslav Nad says the first multinational NATO units with the Patriot air defence systems have been moving to his country.
Nad said on Sunday the transfers will continue over the few next days.
Germany and the Netherlands have agreed to send their troops armed with the Patriots to Slovakia. The troops are some of the 2,100 soldiers from several NATO members, including the United States, who will form a battlegroup on Slovak territory as the alliance boosts its defences in its eastern flank following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Nad says the Patriots will be initially deployed at the armed forces base of Sliac in central Slovakia before they will be stationed at various places to protect the largest possible Slovak territory.
He thanked Germany and the Netherlands for their "responsible decision" to fundamentally boost Slovakia's defences.
At the same time, Nad said, the Patriots would not replace the Russian-made S-300 air-defence system his country has relied on, calling their deployment "another component to protect Slovakia's airspace."
Nad previously has said his country will be willing to provide its S-300 long-range air defence missile system to Ukraine on condition it has a proper replacement.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky mentioned the S-300s when he spoke to U.S. lawmakers by video Wednesday, appealing for anti-air systems that would allow Ukraine protect its airspace against Russian warplanes and missiles. NATO members Bulgaria, Slovakia and Greece have the S-300s.
The Slovak minister said Sunday his country will work to replace the S-300s with a different system that would be compatible with the systems used by the allies.
