Trump on Ukraine's Resistance
The American president praised the Ukrainian resistance. However, he claims that without the weapons provided by the United States, the war would have ended in three or four days.
“We gave them the best equipment that had ever been created. We gave them anti-tank fighters that could take out tanks. We gave them the newest and best missiles,” Trump said.
Trump believes that previous US President Joe Biden should not have provided Ukraine with more aid than Europe did.
At the same time, Trump confirmed that he plans to resume arms supplies to Ukraine. According to him, the Russian dictator is killing too many people, so the US will send defensive weapons.
Trump on Lindsey Graham's Bill
As the US President noted, he is thinking about the bill of US Senator Lindsey Graham, but has not yet made a final decision.

Senator Lindsey Graham recently said Trump should provide more tools to stop Russia's war against Ukraine, specifically referring to the bill to impose new sanctions.
