British authorities do not plan to send Apache helicopters to Ukraine, but they are looking for suppliers of armored vehicles and missiles for the needs of Ukrainian militants, whose range will be 100 to 300 kilometers. This is stated in the published responses of representatives of the UK Ministry of Defense to questions from members of the UK Parliament.
“The government currently has no plans to transfer Apache helicopters to Ukraine,” reports TASS Baroness Annabelle Goldie, the country’s deputy defense minister.
Another British Deputy Defense Minister, James Hippie, speaking about the work of the International Assistance Fund for Ukraine, said that there are currently plans to allocate funds from it for the provision of air defense and long-range weapons in Kiev.
In addition, the country’s government website indicates that until May 4 this year, the Ministry of Defense is accepting applications from potential suppliers willing to transfer “missiles with a range of 100-300 km land, sea or aerial”. ”
Earlier, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said that the European Union intends to allocate 500 million euros to develop ammunition production in Old World countries. She added that currently there is a need to increase the scale of shellfish production for Kiev’s needs.
