Trump offers Ukraine license to build Patriot missiles, signaling stronger NATO backing
TL;DR Summary
An op-ed argues Trump’s call for giving Ukraine a license to manufacture Patriot missiles would mark a major policy shift toward greater NATO support against Russia, with the U.S. and allies accelerating Patriot production (Lockheed Martin, RTX, Boeing) and expanding the supplier network in Poland and beyond; it also discusses Turkey’s F-35 status and suggests Ukraine could join the Patriot supply chain, framing the move as a win for Zelenskyy and a signal to Putin.
