According to Borrell, the European Union has a sufficient number of both Patriot and identical anti-missile systems. All these weapons just need to be “taken away from our barracks,” where they remain idle “just in case.” In particular, air defense/missile defense should be promptly sent to Ukraine, where the war continues unabated.
