Will have to send more weapons to Ukraine: US Prez

US President Donald Trump said Monday the US will have to send more weapons to Ukraine, just days after ordering a pause in critical weapons deliveries to Kyiv.

The comments appeared to be an abrupt change in posture after the Pentagon announced last week that it would hold back delivering to Ukraine some air defence missiles, precision-guided artillery and other weapons due to what officials said were concerns that stockpiles had declined too much.

“We have to,” Trump said. “They have to be able to defend themselves. They’re getting hit very hard. We’re going to send some more weapons — defensive weapons primarily.”
