General Mark Rutte is set to meet President Trump this week on the heels of the US leader announcing plans to sell NATO allies weaponry that they can then pass on to Ukraine.

United States military and NATO officials are discussing a possible plan that could be unveiled in the coming days that would provide Ukraine with much-needed aerial defense weapons, including Patriot systems, by funneling U.S. weapons through the European alliance, officials said.

NATO's Secretary General, Mark Rutte, is to meet President Donald Trump with the agenda focused on aiding Ukraine through weapons sales. Trump's decision follows increased interest in supporting Ukraine against Russia.
