President Donald Trump pledged on Monday evening to send more weapons to aid Ukraine’s war against Russia, marking a reversal of the Defense Department’s decision last week to pause some military aid to Kyiv.
“We’re going to send some more weapons. We have to. They have to be able to defend themselves. They’re getting hit very hard now. They’re getting hit very hard. We’re going to have to send more weapons, your defensive weapons, primarily, but they’re getting hit very, very hard,” the president told reporters at the White House during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
