Germany Seeks Two More Patriot Missile Batteries for Ukraine

Germany has asked the Trump administration to make two more Patriot missile batteries available for Ukraine, Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said, as allied nations look to repel Russia’s stepped-up missile and drone campaign.

Pistorius said he and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth agreed during a meeting today to resolve any lingering issues around such a deal “quickly and quietly.” He said Germany was also seeking to buy the mid-range Typhon missile system from the US.
