JUST IN: AXIOS — President Trump is planning to sell weapons to NATO allies with the understanding that they will then provide them to Ukraine, three sources familiar with the discussions tell Axios. The President seemed to confirm those plans in an interviewwith NBC News on Thursday. Two administration officials denied the plans meant Trump would now be arming Ukraine. “POTUS is sending defensive weapons to NATO. NATO can decide what to do with it. We’re not sending weapons to Ukraine,“ one official said. But Trump himself confirmed in the NBC interview that the arms would ultimately be bound for Ukraine. “So what we’re doing is the weapons that are going out are going to NATO, and then NATO is going to be giving those weapons [to Ukraine], and NATO is paying for those weapons.“ XPOST | WTM LINKS Source: We The Media
