On Wednesday, the Trump administration informed Congress of its intention to green-light the export of defense-related products to Ukraine through direct commercial sales (DCS) of $50 million or more.

Axar.az informs that Kyiv Post has learned this from diplomatic sources.

The permission – the first of its kind since Trump returned to the White House over 100 days ago – comes just weeks after the administration paused all Ukraine-related military aid for review, emphasizing a new priority: leveraging US influence to end the conflict through diplomacy rather than prolonged military support.

The proposed sale covers the export of defense articles, including technical data, and defense services to Ukraine.

The move also comes just weeks after President Volodymyr Zelensky announced his country’s intention to buy $30-50 billion worth of air defense systems and weapons from the US as a form of future security guarantees.
