Ukraine’s troubles for its allies; Slovakia does not have an air defense system

report Mehr News Agency Quoting Rashatudi, the Prime Minister of Slovakia said that he expressed concern about the departure of the Italian air defense system from this country.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico announced on Sunday that the government of Rome plans to withdraw its air defense system from Slovakia.

The Prime Minister of Slovakia added further: I received a notification from the Italian government that the Italian air defense system, which was loaned to us for a year , will leave Slovakia, because they need it elsewhere.

Fico expressed concern about Slovakia’s security after the withdrawal of the Italian air defense system, saying that Slovakia currently has no alternative to protect its airspace.

The Italian air defense system was temporarily deployed in Slovakia last year to replace the US Patriot anti-aircraft system, which Slovakia had transferred to Ukraine.
