Projectiles to hownesses, rockets and Patriots: media have revealed the composition of a new US package for the Armed Forces

According to the interlocutor who is familiar with the course of discussions, except for Patriot Missile Complexes, the main point in the list of wishes of Kiev, the United States can sell NATO members of small range missiles, gauckle shells and the Medium-range Air-Air-Air. The weapons will then be transferred to Ukraine.

The motives for Trump's decision are multifaceted: by selling weapons to European countries, he hopes to protect himself from political criticism for abolishing the election promise to reduce the role of the United States in the Russian-Ukrainian War. The US President also counts on financial luck: each Patriot system costs about $ 1 billion, so the states will receive tremendous benefits.

US officials noted that supplying a large number of new weapons to Ukraine will be a signal of Moscow about serious disappointment with Trump with Russian President Vladimir Putini. "He is really disappointed by Putin and wants to show that he is set to end the war. Maybe it will show Putin that it's time to start negotiations," the source said. The plans for the purchase of American weapons were seriously discussed at the NATO summit in the Netherlands in June.

The last two weeks in the US and Europe have worked out the details of the plan. NATO will not supply weapons to Ukraine, but will be a coordination center. Germany and Norway already want to participate in the initiative, at least four countries will join the project. It should be reminded that in order to protect Ukraine from Russian missile attacks, the United States has already prepared for the sending of 17 Patriot air defense systems.
