According to hvylya.net: U.S. President Donald Trump is considering the possibility of providing new funding to Ukraine for the first time since the start of his second term. CBS News reports this, citing diplomatic sources.

New funding as a signal to Russia

According to sources, the new type of funding could serve as a signal to Russia, which has recently carried out a series of missile and drone attacks on Ukraine.

Last week, the Russian Federation conducted the largest drone attack since the beginning of the full-scale invasion in February 2022.

Trump's initiatives

Previously, Trump stated his intention to send more defensive weapons to Ukraine after suspending some arms deliveries by the administration, which was described as part of a global review of arms transfers.

A former official told CBS News about the possibility of using unspent Trump funds for military equipment for Ukraine. There was also reports of the possibility of confiscating Russian assets and directing those funds to Ukraine.

Trump's position on the conflict

Trump has strongly supported providing military aid to Ukraine and criticized Russia for its actions on the territory of the eastern country.

Donald Trump is actively exploring the question of providing new funding to Ukraine, which could serve as a signal to Russia and help the Ukrainian army ensure security at the border.
