In a significant shift toward Ukraine, Trump announces a plan to send advanced weaponry including Patriot systems, and threatens 100% tariffs if Russia can’t reach a peace deal soon.

In response to the escalating threat, President Trump confirmed Monday that the U.S. will send additional Patriot air defense missiles to Ukraine. He noted that the European Union would finance the purchase of what he described as "various pieces of very sophisticated" U.S. weaponry.

President Trump threatened to punish Russia with heavy tariffs on countries that trade with Moscow if the Kremlin fails to reach a ceasefire deal with Ukraine, while promising Kyiv weapons.
