An American military company was afraid of the Russian Federation and cheated Ukraine out of a large sum
The American company refused to supply equipment for the production of ammunition to Ukraine so as not to enter into confrontation with Russia.
Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine, Minister of Development of Strategic Industries Oleg Urusky stated this on air on the Apostrophe Internet channel, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to the official, Ukraine is today suing a US company that received money for supplying the necessary equipment that Ukraine was supposed to use to create a weapons factory.
“There were negative moments when serious financial resources were sent to foreign companies, eight million dollars to an American company, which then did not deliver the equipment that was ordered.
And now these issues are in international arbitration, Ukraine is suing, as far as I understand, in Stockholm, so that these funds are returned to Ukraine... Our experience shows that to a country that is at war, even our good friends and partners are not very willing to sell ammunition and components for the manufacture of ammunition. Because they live by their own interests, which do not allow them to enter into direct confrontation with our opponent and enemy,” Urusky concluded.
