Macron is such a jerk.
This is another great deal Trump put together FOR America.
I’m sure it didn’t take these leaders long to figure out that they were going to be on the wrong end of a con job facilitated by Lindsey Graham (R-Boeing/Raytheon).
Makes sense for them to make their own stuff
Surrender monkey Frogs and Italians: We NO PAY for US Weapons for Ukraine, cause we know American Democrats will MAKE US Taxpayers pay for 'em, we ain't stupid.
Germany is paying for all of it anyway. They will send their Patriot batteries to Ukraine. Then buy new ones from the U.S.
I’m fine with this. Better that we preserve and build our key reserves anyway.
Does this mean American Tax Payers will be stuck with the Bill again for supplying our Weapons to YouCrayne thru NATO?
Italy is just broke. But Macron is afraid of Pootie.
By this, they’re showing that they’re not really afraid of Russia, so why are our war hawks trying to get them into a fight with that nation?
What a couple of welchers and reniggers .
“such as the Italian-French-made SAMP/T air defense system already supplied to Ukraine”
Zelensky will happily take any weapon system others will pay for.
Another chapter of the same old story, EUROs love war but want the USA to carry all the weight. They deserve to live under Putin or the Muslims, whoever wins first.
The US introducing advanced arms into the conflict could very well make the war spread. This whole scenario of more arms, seems it is being produced and directed by Lindsey Graham.
We don't need to be protecting the ruling classes of former free world countries that hate our guts.
Practically from the inception of World War II to the present date France has been an undependable ally == for anyone or any nation. No surprise.
“France declined to join the plan because of President Emmanuel Macron’s push for European nations to strengthen their own defense industries by purchasing domestically produced arms.”
Is this just an excuse to avoid the bill, or will he provide Ukraine a commensurate amount from French manufacturers?

Haven’t world leaders learned by now that you don’t mess with a “deal” that Trump has made.
Italy and France better step up their defense spending to 5% of GDP immediately on NATO and figure out how to send domestically produced weapons desired by Ukraine or they are going to face the wrath of Trump. It could be tariffs to pay for weapons to Ukraine, it could be something altogether different, but it will be something.
