US planning to supply more weapons to Ukraine

The United States will send more weapons to Ukraine, U.S. President Donald Trump said.

“We’re going to send some more weapons. We have to. They have to be able to defend themselves,” Trump told reporters at the White House.

The U.S. Department of Defense later announced that, at Trump’s direction, they would send mostly defensive weapons to Ukraine.

The U.S. president also threatened to impose sanctions on Russia, noting that the adoption of the bill being discussed in Congress on this issue depends on his decision.
