President Donald Trump stated that the United States will provide a license to Ukraine for Patriot missiles, as he believes both Russia and Ukraine want to see the war settled.
Trump made this announcement during a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy at the NATO summit in Ankara.

Zelenskiy has repeatedly requested the US-made interceptors, which are the only weapons in Ukraine’s arsenal capable of shooting down ballistic projectiles.
