Trump's Son on Russia and Ukraine
Donald Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr., has expressed support for supplying weapons to Russia in the ongoing conflict with Ukraine. He argues that Russia is a powerful nuclear power with vast natural resources, making it a more valuable ally than Ukraine.
Trump Jr. also criticizes the Biden administration's decision to support Ukraine, arguing that the US should instead focus on strengthening its relationship with Russia.

Taiwan Resumes MH-60R Helicopter Acquisition Program
Taiwan has resumed its program to acquire MH-60R anti-submarine helicopters from the United States. This decision comes amid the country's president's pledge to increase defense spending to 3% of GDP.
The program was previously postponed due to Taiwan's shift in defense strategy, but it has been resumed due to pressure from the US and Taiwan's desire to deepen security cooperation.
EU and UK Discuss Military Spending Bank
The European Union and the United Kingdom are discussing the creation of a military spending bank to finance large-scale defense projects. This initiative is driven by the threat of losing US military support and the need to provide Ukraine with its own forces.
The bank or fund could be modeled after the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and would aim to avoid increasing budget expenditures.

The US should focus on strengthening its relationships with all countries, not just Ukraine.
