Ukraine Promises U.S. $100 Billion Weapons Deal

Ukraine seeks $150 billion in U.S. arms and drone deals to obtain security guarantees after any peace settlement with Russia, including $100 billion weapons plan financed by Europe.

  • On Monday, Ukrainian President Zelensky met U.S. President Trump at the White House to discuss a $100 billion U.S. weapons purchase backed by Europe.
  • The purchase comes after years of ongoing conflict following Russia’s large-scale attack in early 2022 and is intended to secure U.S. security assurances in the event of a peace agreement.
  • Ukraine also proposed a $50 billion co-production deal for drones with American firms, while insisting the ceasefire must precede any agreement and rejecting Russian territorial demands.
  • Trump stated, "We're not giving anything," but said Europe could provide security guarantees with Washington overseeing the Russia peace deal, signaling ongoing diplomatic efforts.
  • The deal could lead to major contracts for U.S. defense companies, including orders for at least 10 Patriot air-defense batteries to protect Ukrainian cities and infrastructure.
