President Donald Trump has finally found a way to like arming Ukraine: ask European allies to donate their weapons, and sell them American replacements.

Germany will not disclose details about the American weapons to be supplied to Ukraine at this time. Discussing it publicly would not be the right approach, stated German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius in an interview with Tagesthemen.

NATO allies will buy arms, then give them to Ukraine, President Trump said. Patriot air defense systems, missiles and ammunition are among the American-made weapons NATO allies will buy under an arms deal brokered with President Trump to help Ukraine defend itself from Russian attacks.
