LOS ANGELES, July 14 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump said Sunday that the United States will send Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine to help bolster the country's defenses against Russian attacks.
Speaking to reporters at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, Trump explained that the European Union would purchase the missiles from the United States and then deliver them to Ukraine.
"We're basically going to send them various pieces of very advanced military equipment. They're going to pay us 100 percent for it, and that's what we want," the president said, without specifying how many Patriot systems would be provided.
The American leader also said he plans to meet with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte next week to discuss the Ukrainian issue and other urgent issues. –0–
