Other circumstances: Borrel explained why allies would not confuse missiles over Ukraine

The head of European diplomacy considers it inappropriate to compare the situation in Ukraine and Israel. The Allies knocked down Iranian air goals as they flew over the western military bases in the Middle East. Kyiv Allies in Europe cannot destroy rockets and drones over Ukraine, as was done for Israel. This was announced at a briefing by the head of European diplomacy Josep Borrel.

According to him, there are military bases of European countries in the Middle East, while they are absent in Ukraine. In response to the question of why the Western countries cannot knock the air goals over the Ukrainian territory, Borrel said: "I am not for the first time to answer such a question, it is fundamental. It is that Ukraine also suffers from bombardment, and perhaps even more. " At the same time, Borrel considers it inappropriate to compare the situation in Ukraine and Israel.

"Iran's strikes took place over the Air Force of France, the United States, the United Kingdom and Jordan. They acted in order of self -defense. There is no such self -defense. There are no air bases in the Ukrainian territory or in the territory over which Russian missiles fly over And, of course, " - said Borrel. According to the leader of European diplomacy, now the European Union seeks to strengthen Ukrainian air defense so that it can reflect Russian attacks on its own.

Borrel hopes that the next time of the next meeting with the heads of the Ministries of Defense will be able to agree on clear obligations on this issue. Late on the evening of April 13, the press service of Tsakhal reported the launch of Iran drones in the direction of Israel. In total, Tehran launched more than 300 UAVs and various types of missiles on Israel, most of which managed to destroy.
