Germany not in talks with Ukraine on Patriot deployment

The German government is not in talks with Ukraine about the transfer or deployment of Patriot air defence systems there, said a German government spokesperson on Friday.

Germany last month offered Poland the Patriot system to help secure its airspace after a stray missile crashed and killed two people in Poland. Polish Defence Minister Mariusz Blaszczak later asked Germany to send the fire units to Ukraine instead.
