The Trump administration approved the first deliveries of American weapons to Ukraine, paid for by European NATO allies.

The Undersecretary of Defense, Elbridge Colby, has approved two transports worth up to 500 million dollars under the new mechanism called the Priority Requirements List for Ukraine.

The new transatlantic cooperation, which aims to support Kiev with weapons worth up to 10 billion dollars, comes in the context where American President Donald Trump has expressed his frustration over Moscow's ongoing attacks on the neighboring country, despite his efforts to achieve a negotiated end to the conflict.
