President Donald Trump emphasized how U.S. weapons have become essential to Kyiv’s battlefield resistance during a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
President Donald Trump, meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday, praised the strength of America’s military-industrial base and stressed that U.S. weapons are key to Kyiv’s resistance against Russia.
“You mentioned the Patriots—how good are they?” Trump asked Zelenskyy, referencing Raytheon’s missile system. They’re literally 100% fool-proof. It’s really like two bullets hitting each other in the air”, Trump said, describing the Patriot’s hit-to-kill technology.
Trump said that during his administration, U.S. policy has focused on selling military technology to European allies instead of directly financing weapons packages.
