Better late than never."The US is planning to send advanced air defence systems to Ukraine after Donald Trump signed a minerals deal with Kyiv and threatened to walk away from peace talks.
One Patriot system will be moved from Israel after undergoing refurbishments, while a second system could be sent by Germany or Greece, according to four officials.
Mr Trump paused all military deliveries to Ukraine after a row with Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office. But he has since grown frustrated with Vladimir Putin’s refusal to commit to a ceasefire and has withdrawn from formal peace negotiations.
The officials, speaking to the New York Times, refused to confirm whether the proposed shipment reflected a change in the US president’s approach toward Ukraine.
Joe Biden, the former US president, secured the deal with Israel in September ahead of Mr Trump’s election win, according to a former White House official."

The mercurial president is settling on his predecessor's policy, for the moment anyway.
He has lawyers, criminals, drunks, geek hackers, conspiracy theorists, religious nutters. etc. doing his job. He's playing stupid now to cover his ass for all the crimes and violations of his Oath that he is committing.
A grand total of maybe two launchers? Such a huge deal"The US is planning to send advanced air defence systems to Ukraine after Donald Trump signed a minerals deal with Kyiv and threatened to walk away from peace talks.

Two of anything isn’t very much in this sort of war, a conflict on a scale the U.S. hasn’t seen anything close to since Vietnam.2 ADSs will make a huge difference for Ukraine. It's 2 more chances to knock down Russian drones & cruise missiles before they can reach their targets and kill civilians.
Each Patriot Missile launcher has 4 rockets, which naturally can be reloaded. Two well equipped, properly placed and manned Patriot Missile launchers might be able to defend the capital Kyiv against Putin's rocket attacks.2 ADSs will make a huge difference for Ukraine.
