AFP (via France 24) · back to the audit

US President Donald Trump said on Friday that Washington had not agreed to allow Ukraine to produce Patriot missiles, contradicting remarks by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky following talks between the two leaders earlier this week. President Donald Trump said on Friday the United States had not agreed to Ukraine building Patriot missiles, adding the US had "to be very careful about letting somebody build them". Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky met with Trump for just over an hour at the White House earlier this week for talks that came as Kyiv and Moscow intensify long-range strikes after US-led diplomatic efforts to end the war stalled. Zelensky said following the meeting that Trump had agreed to license Patriot production to Ukraine, but the US president only said that "many things were discussed" and "the meeting went very well!"
