During Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis’s visit to Odesa, the city was attacked by Russian missiles. This incident was followed by reports that Ukraine may receive S-300 anti-aircraft missile systems from Greece, according to the Greek newspaper Ekathimerini.
Greece is considering the delivery of the S-300 missile system to Ukraine from its stockpile on the island of Crete. The country had previously been hesitant about such supplies, eager not to provoke Russia and because the United States had refused to provide modern Patriot systems as a replacement for the Soviet-era hardware.
There has been reportedly much discussion recently about swapping out Greece’s existing systems for contemporary American ones. A Russian missile strike during Mitsotakis’s meeting with President Volodymyr Zelensky in Odesa has reportedly made Greece less apprehensive about Russian warnings.
Some politicians, however, continue to express doubts about supplying Ukraine with the S-300 system, especially in light of Zelensky’s visit to Turkey, which is offering to mediate peace talks with Russia. Nevertheless, the window of opportunity to supply the S-300 is rapidly closing, as the system is nearing obsolescence, the journalists suggest.
The acquisition of the Patriot system would aid Greece in modernizing its defenses on the Aegean Sea’s eastern islands, which are close to Turkey.
In December 2022, Russian officials declared that Athens should abandon “dangerous intentions” of supplying the S-300 missile system to Ukraine.

It was the near death of the Greek PM in Odesa , that made this decision possible………………..
Didn’t realize that Greeks are chicken shit!
Defensive, defensive… Nobama drivel. Deliver OFFENSIVE WEAPONS EVERYONE! 😡
Time the US Congress will pass all Ukraine aid or i will change my avatar and endorse Joe Biden!
48 hours left.
Might as well get it over with and do it right now, Mike.
Where is my home as a southern conservative who despises sub-humans, pedophiles, rapists and doped retards? I’m heartbroken my party is destroyed.
Well, for you and me both, Mike.
You say you despise pedophiles, rapists and retards, and yet your avatar is all three…
Well, i had Nikki before. She could have won, but the chaos at our southern border caused by a rogue antifa idiot played into Trump’s hands. BTW, why you named pedophiles first? A specific reason, you know something i don’t know? Too bad you almost never comment on Ukraine, just US politics instead, all the time.
Same order as you wrote.
I comment on things I know. I’m here to learn about Ukraine. But I don’t comment purely on US politics – primarily on how US politics affect Ukraine.
For example, did you know that in 2016 Russia presented Paul Manafort with a plan in which Russia would help Trump get elected in exchange for weakening NATO and undermining the U.S. stance in favor of Ukraine, before I posted about it?
Here we go again. Mulling, mulls, mulled, think, thinking, contemplate, contemplating, and so on and so forth…
Do it!
