Trump Reverses Course: Patriot Missiles to be Sent to Ukraine

US President Donald Trump has announced his decision to send Patriot missiles to Ukraine, aiming to bolster the country's defenses against the ongoing Russian invasion. This announcement comes after a brief suspension of their delivery last week, which was originally set for next year, due to concerns over US stockpile levels. In a press conference in Washington, Trump stated, "We will send them the Patriots which they desperately need because Putin has really surprised a lot of people. He first speaks kindly and then bombs everyone." Although Trump did not disclose the number of Patriot missiles being sent, he mentioned that NATO countries would cover the costs, reimbursing the United States. Further details are expected to be revealed following Trump's meeting with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, scheduled for 4 PM Italian time. Related Sources: • Source 1 • Source 2
