In brief
Paperwork for a licence allowing Ukraine to produce Patriot missiles remains unfinished at the Pentagon, UNIAN reports, citing two sources who spoke to journalist Alex Raufoglu.
The process of granting Ukraine a licence to manufacture missiles for Patriot air defence systems remains blocked at the Pentagon, UNIAN reported, citing two sources who spoke to Radio Liberty's Washington correspondent Alex Raufoglu.
According to the report, further processing of the paperwork is being held up at the level of Michael Duffey, the US undersecretary of defence for acquisition and sustainment. The documents remain unfinished despite earlier reports that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth approved the matter in October.
UNIAN did not identify the two sources or specify when the licence paperwork might be completed. The reported earlier approval does not establish that Ukraine has received the licence.
