In response to the question of what Ukraine would receive in return for signing an agreement with the United States on the joint development of natural resources, President Trump stated, "$350 billion, a lot of equipment, military equipment, and the right to fight in the future. I have to say, Ukraine ... they are courageous and good soldiers. But this war will be over quickly without the United States and its money and military equipment."
Trump was also asked how long the supply of military equipment to Ukraine could continue, and he replied: "Until we have an agreement with Russia. We have to be ready for it. We need an agreement. Otherwise, everything will continue."
