“So what we’re doing is, the weapons that are going out are going to NATO, and then NATO is going to be giving those weapons (to Ukraine), and NATO is paying for those weapons.”
Those weapons could be transferred to Ukraine, with European countries buying replacements from the US, he said.
Ukraine badly needs more US-made Patriot air defense systems to stop Russian ballistic and cruise missiles.
After a brief pause in some weapons shipments, Trump said he would keep sending defensive weapons to Ukraine.
A senior NATO military official said Trump spoke to NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte about the plan but the details were “still being worked out.”
Ukraine is seeking more coveted Patriot air defence systems.
