U.S. military aid to Ukraine remains uncertain

U.S. military aid to Ukraine is uncertain after a meeting between President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. Initial discussions were positive, but tensions arose over a minerals deal and security guarantees, leading to a lack of further communication. Ukrainian officials sought to revive the minerals deal, which was intended to strengthen economic ties. However, Trump officials expressed frustration with Zelenskyy's demands and indicated that negotiations with Russia may be more challenging than anticipated. Currently, U.S. weapons shipments to Ukraine continue, but no new packages have been announced. The Trump administration has $3.85 billion in weaponry authority and $1.5 billion in military financing under review, pending decisions from the White House.
