The deal also includes the purchase of drones by Ukrainian companies worth $50 billion. As for the specific types of weapons Ukraine intends to acquire, the document does not specify. However, Kyiv currently expresses a desire to purchase at least 10 Patriot air defense systems to protect cities and infrastructure, as well as various missiles and equipment. Regarding the drone deal, it is unclear whether it concerns a purchase or an investment.

In connection with the negotiations between the leaders of the European Union and Donald Trump at the White House, the American president has agreed to a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
