This is great and all, but do these guys not realize it's better and cheaper to do more faster?

It's to signal to Russia that the money won't stop flowing if they wait to 2025. Or 2026, 2027, 2028, etc.
That money isn't actually there yet, they will have to pass the budget every year
Probably, but that's the problem right? Even if you could, it's about sustainability. But also that's there isnt very much . And, it's a complete inventory chaos, because of different specs. And ofc, there's always political reasons and what nots. Generally, that's what's being said anyway.
This is political, business bullshit. Like Spain is in a moment to throw money to fuel wars. I like how people find this kind of things a good way to help. Ukraine war is a big fucking business people. Get out from your hashtag mind
They are actually throwing money at peace. Believe it or not.
Kremlin must be stopped or we'll all regret it even more.
“Throwing money at peace” … yeah tell me another story . Because west is the solution . Right?
Thank you SPAIN!
Kill those Russians!
Well, kill the invaders I'd say!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The bilateral deal was agreed two days after Russia’s onslaught in the north-eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv killed 18 people, and as EU leaders grow increasingly exasperated with Hungary’s efforts to block aid to Ukraine.
“[This deal] will allow Ukraine to boost its capabilities, including its essential air defence systems to protect its civilians, cities and infrastructure, which are still suffering indiscriminate attacks as seen this weekend in Kharkiv,” Sánchez told a press conference after the signing.
Zelenskiy, who recently issued a desperate plea for world leaders to attend a “peace summit” next month in Switzerland, said he had briefed Sánchez on the situation on the frontline and was grateful to Spain for its “tangible and truly life-saving support”.
But he said Ukraine still urgently needed another seven US-made Patriot air defence systems to stop Russia using Soviet-era glide bombs to hit the power grid and civilian areas.
Lithuania’s foreign minister, Gabrielius Landsbergis, told reporters in Brussels that analysis showed Hungary had blocked nearly half of all declarations on Ukraine since Russia invaded in 2022.
He also said he believed a mechanism that would allow the EU to remove Hungary’s ability to vote on bloc-wide foreign policy decisions was not a viable option because it requires unanimity.
The original article contains 701 words, the summary contains 207 words. Saved 70%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
This deal will allow Ukraine to boost its capabilities, including its essential air defence systems to protect its civilians, cities and infrastructure, which are still suffering indiscriminate attacks as seen this weekend in Kharkiv,” Sánchez told a press conference after the signing.
He said Spain had already pledged to supply Patriot missiles and said it would also send “another batch of Leopard tanks and above all ammunition”.
The Spanish government said the agreement would also include other areas, such as intelligence, training, de-mining, reconstruction and humanitarian assistance.
