Putin was a fool: Axios on how Trump's irritation made him rethink about helping Ukraine

Trump promised to send Ukraine 10 Patriot interceptors

US President Donald Trump immediately decided to send Ukraine 10 Patriot interceptors, which is less than was planned in the suspended supplies. The decision to resume supplies was made after consultations with aides and world leaders, as well as after a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, which both sides described as 'the best'.

Enhancing Ukraine's defense capabilities

Trump told reporters about his intention to send more defensive weapons to Ukraine to protect the country. Initially, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz called the US president asking to resume the supplies of Patriot interceptors, as well as Germany's readiness to purchase and send them to Ukraine.

Internal doubts and irritation

At the same time, Axios reveals Trump's internal doubts about increasing military support for Ukraine, as he said, 'this is not my war'. Nevertheless, Putin's attacks on Ukraine after talking to Trump influenced the president's decision. Ukrainians need to receive support and feel safer than ever before.

Ukraine will receive additional support from the US in the form of 10 Patriot interceptors, which will be an additional step in strengthening the country's defense capabilities in the context of strained relations with Russia. Trump's decision was made after consultations with world leaders and meets the security needs of Ukraine, which is subjected to hostile actions from the neighboring state.
