Donald Trump’s statement, made on Monday, July 14, can significantly affect the war in Ukraine. It has a clear position on the need to continue military assistance to our country. Journalist Briefly about He understood what the US is ready to do in this direction.

Which weapon is now needed by Ukraine The main thing that our country needs now is rockets of different systems for air defense and rocket launchers (RSSS). These are Patriot-intercepant missiles for Patriot systems missile defense, rockets to defeat Russian objects at a long distance. In addition, there is a need for 155-mm of fugas artillery shells, Hellfire-driven rockets, high-precision GMLRS missile systems, F-16 Air-Air Aircraft aircraft and other weapons.

A specific statement from Donald Trump is the supply of 17 Patriot installations. The US president explained that “this military equipment worth billions of dollars will be purchased in the United States, will come to NATO and quickly get to the front.” This is what really needs the Armed Forces now, and what can significantly change the arrangement of forces at the front.

However, not only in the defense of cities and strategically important objects. Patriot can also be used near the front line (which has been hinted by Trump himself) by “pushing” only one of them by the attacking potential of the enemy from the border of direct collisions. The missiles of the SPR system (anti-aircraft missile complex) are capable of striking air targets with a separation of up to 160 km, so hostile aviation will not be able to feel calmly even in the depths of its territory.

Rockets to defeat targets in the depths of During a recent conversation with Vladimir Zelensky Donald Trump, he was surprised why Ukraine has not yet struck Moscow in response to strikes in the capital of Ukraine. The Washington Post reports that Volodymyr Zelenskyy replied that this is only possible if the appropriate weapons were provided.

After that, the US President agreed to supply Kyiv long -range missiles that can reach a goal deep inside the Russian territory, including Moscow. The US media even reported that Donald Trump also considered the possibility of sending Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine. However, they are not in the delivery list yet.

Kyiv can now get from the US aircraft winged missiles Jassm-Er. These are high -precision winged lanks, designed to defeat well -protected land goals. However, for their start there is no need to enter the area of enemy air defense.

They are launched from fighter jets and bombers, including F-16 and are able to accurately impress targets up to 370 km (in the standard version) and more than 900 km in the Jassm-ER modification.

JASSM is equipped with a GPS combination system and infrared. This can effectively bypass the air defense systems and strike the fortified objects such as headquarters. Jassm is actively supplied to European countries and has already been considered to supply Ukraine by the previous US Presidential Administration.

New sanctions against Russia have been postponed for 50 days But not only Donald Trump’s weapon intends to help Kiev. The US President has stated that the United States would impose rigid sanctions against Russia unless an agreement on peace has been reached within 50 days.

“We are very dissatisfied with Russia. And if we do not agree within 50 days, we will impose very harsh tariffs in about 100%. You call them secondary tariffs (tariffs against trade partners of Russia. – Ed.),” He explained.

In addition, his portfolio lies a draft law on a duty of 500% against countries that trade with Russia, despite the war in Ukraine.

“The President told me that it was time to advance the bill,” said the co-author of the bill, the Republican Senator Lindsey Graham.

“If you buy goods in Russia and do not help Ukraine, then there will be tariffs of 500% for your goods in the US. India and China buy 70% of Putin oil, supporting its military car on the move. My bill is supported by 84 senators (out of 100. – China) Putin’s car to fit them at the negotiation table, ”he said.

Russian money in the US can hand over to Kiev Donald Trump’s table has another effective and radical version against Moscow – confiscation of five billion dollars of Russian assets in the United States with a further referral to Ukraine.

States’ expansion, Joe Biden, avoided such steps, fearing the destabilization of financial markets, but Trump seems to be considering this scenario. The EU also discusses the use of frozen Russian funds (about $ 300 billion), but there the process is complicated by legal barriers. Earlier, Ukraine has already received 1 billion euros from the EU at the expense of frozen Russian assets.

CBS News has confirmed that new funding could be aimed at sending a signal of Russia, which has struck Ukraine with drones and missiles in recent days.

Meanwhile

Europe was intensified again It is noteworthy that, having received the gaze and consent of Trump for the supply of weapons to Ukraine, some European countries immediately expressed their readiness to equip Ukraine.

The German Minister of Defense Boris Pistorius, after negotiations with the US Secretary of Defense, said Berlin and Washington, would decide to send two American air defense systems Patriot to Kiev for several days or weeks. Germany also thinks of buying a high -precision Typhon high range in the US, which is capable of launching missiles with a range of about 2 thousand kilometers.

Sweden Prime Minister ULF Kristerson said Sweden will continue “his contribution to the rapid and significant deliveries of Ukraine.” “As one of Ukraine’s largest donors and with our NATO allies, Sweden will continue to contribute to the rapid and significant deliveries of Ukraine.” And this country intends to put another military aid package for our country.

Danish Defense Ministry reports LO that it will provide satellite services required for defense through the European Defense Agency. Ukraine will access the terminals and use them to establish a reliable and secure satellite communication.

The US Ambassador at NATO Matthew Witaker said that during the sales of US foreign buyers would be given priority for European procurement for Ukraine. “We produce the best weapon in the world and everyone wants to buy it. And we will prioritize weapons for Ukraine,” he said.
