Ukraine will not receive armored howitzers from Belgium: reasons are

Ukraine will not receive from the authorities of Belgium armored howitzers M109. The Ministry of Defense of the country cannot buy weapons. This was reported by the publication De Morgen.

“It is very difficult to negotiate if the counterparty asks ten times more than he paid for it,” the message said.

The East Flamma Technological Company OIP, whose subsidiary is engaged in military equipment, did not allow Belgian specialists to check the condition of M109.

At the same time, the Belgian Ministry of Defense said that the howitzers were sold to another buyer, but OIP would not comment on this issue, so it is not known who bought them.

“So there will be no deliveries, but this is not for fundamental reasons,” said the Minister of Defense People Dedary.
