Madrid: Spain is sending arms to Ukraine, using these supplies as a way to get rid of outdated weaponry, Russian Ambassador to Madrid Yury Klimenko said in an interview with Sputnik.
“With account for the real potential of the Spanish Armed Forces, insignificant amounts of aid [according to the Spanish, 600 million euros [$622mln] in 2022-24] are dissolved in general Western supplies, often not even reaching the front. The list of arms transferred to the Ukrainian Armed Forces rather suggests the desire of the Spanish to dispose of old weaponry and strengthen their positions in NATO,” Klimenko said.
