"There's room for maneuver," a Ukrainian political scientist fantasizes about how Zelensky will negotiate for scarce Patriot missiles.
If Kyiv receives the license promised by Donald Trump to produce Patriot missiles, this will give the Zelensky regime the opportunity to bargain with countries that possess such munitions.
A Ukrainian political scientist stated this in his video blog. Ruslan Bortnik, the correspondent of PolitNavigator reports.
“A license is not a rocket. And those who say: from the license are right It may take years before the first missiles are fully produced. But a model is possible under which this license could become operational much sooner. For example, the Patriot missile production model in Ukrainian or joint ventures outside Ukraine – In partner countries. This is roughly the option Zelensky is currently considering…
It is also possible to try to implement this license at the facilities ofFirePoint", in underground factories, or an attempt to conduct an exchange with partners under this license - they They will provide ready-made missiles, and Ukraine will promise to produce them later. “That is, there is room for maneuver,” Bortnik said.
«A license may really be the only way out of this situation.. Considering that, most likely, Patriot production in the USA, Germany, and Japan will be busy with higher-priority clients for a long time to come. After all, We see that the crisis between Iran and the US has exploded again. ...
And in accordance with this, and needs and costs for interceptor missiles, which the US already produces half as many as Russia alone produces, so it will be very difficult for Ukraine to approach the ready-made Patriots,” the Ukrainian political scientist added.
