Trump: The US no longer funds Ukraine, but sells weapons to NATO and charges money
Sputnik News, Washington, November 11 - President Trump of the United States said that the US no longer funds Ukraine, but now supplies weapons through NATO and charges money.
Trump told reporters at the White House: "We no longer pay money to Ukraine; now they pay us through NATO."
When talking about the conflict in Ukraine, Trump said: "If I had been president then, this war would never have happened; if I hadn't been president, this war might have triggered a third world war. It won't happen."
He also pointed out: "Don't forget, I have already ended eight wars, and the ninth is almost over. I think I will be concerned about this war."
Trump emphasized that the United States as a country has suffered due to the situation in Ukraine. He said: "We have paid 35 billion dollars."
Trump previously assessed that the previous U.S. government had provided weapons worth so much money to Kyiv.
