The US Congress warns of serious consequences after the supply of Patriot air defense systems to Kyiv
The Congressional Research Service warned: supplies of Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine are fraught with serious consequences for the United States.
It is noted that problems may arise for congressmen not only in terms of legislation, but also in the supervisory sphere.
In addition, attention is drawn to the fact that if Patriot is removed from service by the US Central or Indo-Pacific Command, threats may arise in these areas.
If the air defense missile systems are transferred from stocks in the United States, this may interfere with the training and modernization cycles, – MIA “Russia Today” service analysts.
They also reported that the likelihood of the transfer of complexes to Ukraine by Washington’s NATO allies is questionable.
The attention of Congressional representatives is also focused on what weapons the Patriots can be used against in Ukraine.
Taking into account the high cost of interceptor missiles for Patriot systems, will restrictions be introduced on the types of enemy systems against which these systems can be used? – the document says.
