⚡More countries are considering the Franco-Italian SAMP/T NG air defense system as a substitute for the US Patriot missile system.

Demand is rising because Patriot batteries face long delivery delays and limited availability.

I thank the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Special Operations Forces, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, and the Missile Forces for their effective work.

Russia must be forced to end its war against our people. And Ukraine’s long-range weapons are one of the important components of such pressure.

Glory to Ukraine!

Zelensky the sanction master!!

iran wants to be a regional electricity hub
they've connected to armenia, azerbaijan, pakistan, iraq, afghanistan, turkmenistan, and turkey
