On Tuesday, the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Donald Trump held talks at the White House. The main topic of their meeting was the possibility of granting Ukraine licenses to produce missiles for the Patriot air defense systems. Allowing Ukraine to manufacture these missiles domestically would enhance its defense capabilities, reducing reliance on foreign supplies. Currently, Ukraine operates US-provided Patriot systems to intercept Russian missile attacks. The discussion on production licenses is part of broader defense cooperation between the two countries. No specific outcomes or decisions have been announced yet.
