Zelenskyy: Trump decided to grant Kyiv the necessary permits for Patriot production

United States President Donald Trump has granted Ukraine the necessary permits to manufacture Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems domestically. Announced by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy following a meeting in New York, this move aims to bolster Kyiv's defense capabilities against Russian ballistic missiles. While Secretary of State Marco Rubio noted earlier in September that discussions were underway, he cautioned that this authorization will not provide an immediate solution to Ukraine's ongoing defense challenges.
