Washington, July 14 (HS): Frustrated with the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war, President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. will provide Patriot air defense weapons to Ukraine, stating the U.S. will no longer remain silent on the issue. Trump, who has engaged in discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin, emphasized Ukraine’s need for such weapons while noting that the European Union will cover the costs. He criticized Putin’s inconsistent behavior, stating that while he makes positive comments, he also conducts attacks.

Trump is set to meet NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte to discuss the situation, having previously mentioned an agreement with NATO to send weapons to Ukraine. Despite a recent halt in the supply of some military provisions due to U.S. stock concerns, Trump later reversed his position, with the Pentagon announcing additional weapon supplies.

Interestingly, Trump expressed uncertainty regarding who authorized the initial halt in arms supplies, indicating a complex and evolving stance on U.S. military support for Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict.
