NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte is meeting President Trump to discuss the situation in Ukraine and potential NATO weapon supplies. The visit coincides with legislative moves in the US Senate aiming to impose economic sanctions on Russia.

President Trump is weighing new funding for Ukraine for the first time since taking office in January, diplomatic sources told CBS News.

US President Donald Trump has said he will send weapons, including Patriot air defence systems, for Ukraine via Nato. Trump told NBC News that in a new deal, "we're going to be sending Patriots to Nato, and then Nato will distribute that", adding that Nato would pay for the weapons.
