Moscow-Kiev conflict, Defense Minister Crosetto: “From Italy weapons to Ukraine only for defense”
A war in which the whole of the West is now involved, and therefore also Italy: the Minister of Defense Guido Crosetti was heard yesterday, January 25, in front of the Copasir, right after the definitive approval by the Chamber of Deputies of the decree that extend the permit at the assignment Of means, materials and military equipment in favor of Ukraine and while working on the sixth interministerial decree: “It will be written in the next few weeks. Currently we are evaluating with the countries with which we help Ukraine what more is needed, not just weapons but aid of all kinds, such as generators or tents“.
The minister himself, however, a guest of “L’aria che tira” had anticipated a novelty that will be contained in the text: “Italy will send weapons to allow Kiev to defend itself. Considering the missile attacks that have rained down on Ukraine, especially on civilian targets, thermal power plants that try to psychologically bend the population, we have realized available to give of the non-attacking weapons the Russians but what they defend from missile attacks. We will give a system defense that allows the Ukrainians to shoot down missiles before they hit the groundsomething that is difficult to criticize”. And again: “This is the only decree that contains only defensive weaponsthen generators, material to help people not only the Ukrainian armed forces to overcome the winter. This decree should be an unassailable decree. The tanks that other nations will give are the consequence of the fact that Russia starts again with a heavy territorial action, with 300,000 people who, once trained, will enter Ukraine from March to try to resume the conquest. Faced with this Russian decision, Ukraine has changed its demands, asking whoever could provide it with the means to defend itself against this new attack given the superiority that 300,000 people give to Russia over the Ukrainian military”.
