That makes complete sense.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Rutte, the decision stems from the recent NATO summit in The Hague, where allies agreed to gradually increase defense spending to 5% of GDP, continue supporting Ukraine, and ramp up defense production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He named countries such as Germany, Finland, and the Netherlands as examples of European allies stepping up their efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are now working within NATO\u2019s framework to determine exactly what Ukraine needs so we can assemble the appropriate military aid packages. Ukraine will gain access to a vast amount of weaponry, including missile defense systems, rockets, ammunition, and more,\u201d Rutte said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He stressed that the U.S. decision would accelerate the delivery of arms to Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commenting on Russia, the NATO chief said that in light of recent developments in Washington, \u201cif I were in Putin\u2019s place, I would reconsider my approach to negotiations with Ukraine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As reported earlier, Secretary General Rutte arrived in Washington on July 14 for a two-day visit. His schedule includes meetings with President Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and members of Congress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier, President Trump confirmed that the U.S. would supply Ukraine with Patriot air defense missiles to counter Russian attacks, remarking that \u201cPutin says nice things, but bombs people at night.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump previously announced a \u201cmajor statement\u201d regarding Russia, and last week disclosed a preliminary agreement with NATO countries to purchase U.S.-made arms for delivery to Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the beginning of this year, 100 thousand Russian soldiers have been eliminated in Ukraine. If I were Putin and heard what Trump is planning for the next 50 days, I would seriously consider whether it\u2019s worth sitting down at the negotiating table with Ukraine, NATO Secretary General Rutte added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I think this is a chance to achieve peace. Europe has a strong commitment in this war,&#8221; \u2014 Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I have to say, Europe is very determined when it comes to this war. Their level of spirit is truly remarkable. I think they genuinely believe this is a very, very important cause \u2014 otherwise, they wouldn\u2019t be involved. Look, they\u2019re agreeing to pay for everything,&#8221; \u2014 said U.S. President Donald Trump during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/uatv.ua\/en\/trump-threatens-harsh-tariffs-on-russia-if-no-peace-deal-within-50-days\/\">Trump Threatens Harsh Tariffs on Russia If No Peace Deal Within 50 Days, Announced Delivery of 17 Patriot air defense systems for Ukraine<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NATO will cover the costs of weapons for Ukraine that will be &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":1184902,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[49,36415,36422],"tags":[76,78],"sources":[],"class_list":["post-1184899","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","category-11473-news-en","category-11473-news-en-3","tag-glavnoe-en","tag-homepage-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
