Germany will not be able to give Ukraine more Patriot air defense systems because there are only six left in the country.

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius is due to meet with US Defense Secretary Pete Gegseth in the United States, the Financial Times reported.

He said the ministers will discuss a roadmap for U.S. security support in Europe and U.S. Patriot air defense systems for Ukraine.

Pistorius said that Berlin has already handed over 3 of its 12 Patriot systems to Kiev: “We only have 6 left in Germany.”

He explained that the other two were given to Poland and at least 1 was always unavailable due to maintenance or training.

"That's really low, especially given NATO's goals for the capabilities we have to achieve. We certainly can't give more," he said.

He will discuss a proposal he made to Gegseth last month to allow Germany to buy 2 Patriot systems from the U.S. for Kiev.

Germany will not supply its long-range Taurus missiles to Ukraine despite a wave of recent Russian air attacks and Kiev's renewed request.
