Romanian president says he's open to discussing sending Patriot system to Ukraine

Romanian President Klaus Iohannis said on Tuesday he was open to discussing sending a Patriot missile system to Ukraine, reported from Reuters.

After appeals by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, EU governments were urged last month to supply more badly needed defense systems to Kyiv.

"There has been a discussion about who can send Patriot systems to Ukraine over the last few weeks," Iohannis told reporters in Washington after meeting US President Joe Biden in Washington.

"President Biden mentioned it ... in our meeting and I said I was open to discussion. I must discuss it in the Supreme Defence Council to see what we can offer and what we can get in return because it is unacceptable to leave Romania without air defenses," Iohannis said.
