Australia will supply Ukraine with 14 highly maneuverable naval boats with a rigid hull as part of its defense help. We are talking about the members of the Royal Australian Navy.
RBC-Ukraine informs about this in a letter to the Australian Ministry of Defense.
The Australian Defense Department stated that the remaining package of military support from the Ukrainian side, worth 14 million dollars, “will cover the maritime and coastal defense of Ukraine, which is an important operational area for armored forces of Ukraine.”
“These are the naval boats of the Australian Defense Force to secure Ukraine’s fleet and highly maneuverable naval capabilities,” according to the statement of the Ukrainian Ministry.
In the Ministry of Defense Australia added that before the boats are dispatched, the developments of the Ukrainian marine capabilities, including inflatable boats with a rigid hull, are hidden on the front side, which the Deputy Prime Minister of the region said nor Richard Marles yet on the cob of rock.
< p>The Australian Ministry expresses its gratitude that it will help, as part of a permanent request, to “support Ukraine against illegal invasion by Russia.”
“At the beginning of a large-scale invasion Australia donated over 1.3 billion military dollars to Russia support and over 1.5 billion dollars of illegal support to the order of Ukraine,” the Ministry of Defense said.
Behind the words of the Australian Deputy Prime Minister Marles, Ukraine's support in the fight against Russian aggression is in the interests of Australia, and “rightly.” Black Sea. We write to them, “What can we earn our contribution from this important naval guard for the help of this new package,” the official said.
