Russia warns of 'consequences' if U.S. sends Patriot air defence missiles to Ukraine

Russia's Foreign Ministry warned Thursday that if the United States confirms reports it plans to deliver sophisticated air defence missiles to Ukraine, it would be "another provocative move by the U.S." that could prompt a response from Moscow.

Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said in a weekly briefing that the U.S. had "effectively become a party" to the war in Ukraine, following reports that it will provide Kyiv with Patriot surface-to-air missiles, the most advanced the West has yet offered to help repel Russian aerial attacks.

Growing amounts of U.S. military assistance, including the transfer of such sophisticated weapons, "would mean even broader involvement of military personnel in the hostilities and could entail possible consequences," Zakharova added.

She did not specify what the consequences might be.

U.S. officials said Tuesday that Washington was poised to approve sending a Patriot missile battery to Ukraine, finally agreeing to an urgent request from Ukrainian leaders desperate for more robust weapons to shoot down incoming Russian missiles that have crippled much of the country's vital infrastructure. An official announcement is expected soon.

Patriots are pretty expensive to be sending to shoot down some CCCP flying garbage cans inbound that might help knock a falling down build saving demolition cost in the long run.  Around 4 million a shot who is going to pay for this?  Not enough people pay taxes to pay for this war.  They almost need to implement a war time tax on everybody if the Biden administration is so fiscally irresponsible in this conflict.

You know Iran is sending drones and artillery to Russia that were bought and paid for by the US.  They got that money from Obama when he had a big cargo plane maxed out with cash land in Iran and hand it over.  And here we are…. Fight against weapons we bought and paid for.  We don’t have enough Patriots to stop the Obama funded bombing of Ukraine by Russia.  Patriot is a pretty clumsy system tbh.

Not really tbh. Mind your own business and clean up your own yard. Simple.
