Greece is not going to send any more military equipment to Ukraine, Greek government spokesman Ioannis Oikonomou confirmed at a briefing on Friday. The official did not specify whether Athens had previously sent Stinger man-portable air defense systems to Kiev.
The cabinet spokesman was asked whether the government plans to send additional military equipment to Ukraine. “There is nothing new in this direction from what has been done so far. Nothing like that is being discussed,” Oikonomou said. He noted that the defense equipment Athens has previously sent to Ukraine does not weaken Greece’s own defense capabilities. When asked to clarify whether Greece had sent Stinger man-portable air defense systems to Ukraine taken from active units of the Greek army, Oikonomou said: “It is known what defense equipment was sent along with humanitarian aid to Ukraine. Nothing that has been sent weakens the needs and defense capabilities of our country.”
