In the US want Europe to buy more American weapons for Ukraine - Reuters

Donald Trump's administration plans to push European allies to start purchasing more US weapons for military assistance to Ukraine. On the eve of potential peace talks with Russia, the White House wants to persuade its European partners to buy more weapons for Ukraine: they believe it will be a step that will help to improve the position of Kiev during ceasefire negotiations. This became known from the sources of Reuters on February 11.

"The US officials, including Trump representative in Ukraine, Lieutenant General Kit Kelloga, will discuss possible purchase of weapons with European allies this week during the Munich Conference on Security," the statement reads. The publication also adds that this is just one of several ideas that the White House administration is currently discussing about continuing the supply of US weapons to Ukraine, but without spending unnecessary funds from the budget of America itself.

It should be noted that Europe still bought American weapons for Ukraine, in particular during the presidency of Joe Biden. At the same time, Trump's Special Representative Kit Kellogo gave an interview with Reuters, but then neither confirmed nor denied information about such a probable US proposal for European leaders. He only told reporters that America "always likes to sell weapons" because it "strengthens the economy.

" During the interview, he added that weapons are currently being supplied to Ukraine, approved by Biden's presidency. It should be noted that these days should start the Munich Security Conference, which probably "should bring good news for Ukraine. " The event and expectations were commented by GUR Andriy Yusov spokesman, who specified during his interview that "the main events are taking place on the front. " The focus told this on February 10.
