European leaders are debating how much they can and want to give of what Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky asked for. Kyiv is ordering seven anti-aircraft missile batteries while the promised F16 fighter jets begin to arrive in the coming months.
Germany, which refuses to hand over its precious long-range Taurus missiles, announced that it will send a battery of Patriot missiles to Ukraine. The other issue about Ukraine that they will debate will be why the same thing that was done against Iran is not done against Russia, why they are not trying to help Ukraine by shooting down the Russian missiles and drones that attack the country, like the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and, according to European diplomatic sources, other Arab countries did with the Iranian missiles and drones that attacked Israel on Saturday night. The European chancellor, Josep Borrell, demands that they give up what Kiev is asking for and that if they don't have it, they should buy it.
