After promises of advanced air defence systems to Europe and Ukraine, US president says ‘unification’ was dominant theme of key meeting
“It all goes to the benefit of Europe and us, because they’re getting the best equipment,” said Trump.
It came after Zelensky’s repeated calls for the US-made interceptors, as the increased use of drones and missiles in modern warfare has highlighted the significance of air defence, especially in the war in Ukraine, which has seen Kyiv and Moscow exchanging drone attacks on each other’s territories.
