According to the newspaper, the American leader said he was ready to allow Europe to buy weapons made in the United States to give them to Ukraine.

The move would potentially allow Ukraine to use U.S. weapons even if the U.S. withdraws its military support as Trump tries to negotiate an end to the three-year war
Trump answered “yes” on Sunday when asked by reporters about the trade prospect. This opens the door for Ukraine to have access to weapons even if Trump cuts off US aid, Bloomberg reports.
Whether this scenario will materialize is unknown. On the one hand, Trump is pushing for a quick and final cessation of hostilities, insisting on a deal that will likely secure Russian land advantages forever
The Trump administration has told Western allies that it wants them to buy American weapons and military equipment. The Trump team has also suggested that it wants Europe to buy more American energy.
And also for Europe to buy more American energy.
