Poroshenko says Ukraine has received US-made Javelin missile systems

Ukraine’s President Pyotr Poroshenko has confirmed that Ukraine received a batch of US-made Javelin anti-tank missile systems.

“I hail heightened interest, both in Ukraine and aboard, to supplies of Javelin systems to us. I can only confirm that the weapons we have been waiting for so long have arrived in Ukraine. And have reinforced the strong containing effect of our combat capability and Euro-Atlantic security,” he wrote on his Facebook account on Monday.
