Ukrainian officials expressed cautious optimism after President Trump announced a plan to license Patriot air‑defense systems to the country. The move would allow Ukraine to manufacture its own Patriot missiles, which are capable of
intercepting ballistic threats. Trump said the United States would provide the necessary technology and support for the production program. Analysts note that the licensing process and manufacturing setup could take several months or even
