Fed’s Powell opens door to potential rate cuts at Jackson Hole
Investing.com -- Germany is prepared to purchase Patriot air defence systems from the United States and provide them to Ukraine, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz announced on Thursday during a conference in Rome focused on Ukraine support.
Merz revealed he had discussed the matter with U.S. President Donald Trump last week, requesting the delivery of Patriots to Ukraine.
"We are also prepared to purchase additional Patriot systems from the U.S. to make them available to Ukraine," Merz stated at the conference, where he engaged with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and other leaders on air defence matters.
The German Chancellor acknowledged that while the United States requires some Patriot systems for its own use, "they also have a lot of them." He noted that the potential delivery has not been finalized, saying, "It has not yet been finalised whether a delivery will be made."
