Senator Pushkov: it is absolutely clear why Ukraine is buying Bayraktar drones from Turkey
UAVs in Ukraine. He wrote about this in his Telegram channel.
The Russian senator explained the head of the Turkish Foreign Ministry Mevlut Cavusoglu that after the sale, Bayraktar drones become Ukrainian property, so there can be no claims to Ankara for their actions.
Pushkov stressed that before the deal is made, the drones are the property of Turkey, and it is Turkey who decides to whom to sell these weapons.
“After all, it is absolutely clear for what and against whom Ukraine buys Turkish drones. The absolute clarity of the situation, obvious for Ankara, cannot but impose on Turkey a share of responsibility for the consequences of their use, ”the senator concluded. Ankara has a batch of Bayraktar attack drones for the needs of the country's armed forces.
At the end of October, Ukraine first used the Turkish Bayraktar TV2 drone in hostilities in Donbas. This caused sharp criticism from Russia.
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said that the Bayraktar drones used by Ukraine in Donbass cannot be called Turkish after the sale agreement.
