Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky met US President Donald Trump in Washington to discuss military support, including a contract for 25 Patriot air defence systems. Each system costs around $1 billion and deliveries will take years due to production queues, though the White House could adjust priorities. Zelensky said European allies might also provide existing systems. The Ukrainian leader is exploring funding from EU-backed reparations loans, bilateral security agreements and NATO initiatives. While Zelensky did not secure Tomahawk missiles, he confirmed he would join a proposed Trump-Putin summit in Budapest if invited. The tense talks highlighted both progress on defence and ongoing disagreements over peace and territory.
