Quote: “We’re no longer involved with funding Ukraine, but we’re involved with trying to stop the war and the killing in Ukraine. So we’re selling missiles and military equipment [worth] millions and millions, and ultimately billions of dollars, to the NATO people.”
Details: He noted that the US is concentrating on producing and selling its own products and intends to continue doing so.
Trump said that American defence companies are working at full capacity: “The factories are doubling up and tripling up where they make the Patriots and other, really, you could say, defensive and offensive weapons.”
Background: On 25 August, speaking to journalists at the White House, Trump stated that Washington will contribute to security guarantees, but will not be spending any more money on Ukraine.
