Ukrainians have responded to U.S. President Donald Trump's recent pledge to provide additional U.S.-made weapons in their ongoing conflict with Russia. While the announcement was generally welcomed, there remains considerable uncertainty regarding the specifics of the military aid, including the exact types and quantities of weapons to be delivered and the timeline for their arrival. Trump mentioned the transfer of 17 Patriot systems, but Ukrainian military officials have expressed confusion about what this figure actually represents. Major General Vadym Skibitskyi and other experts have indicated that the 17 units could refer to individual pieces of equipment rather than full Patriot missile batteries, with some suggesting the number might correspond to components of about three batteries. Given that only 96 Patriot systems exist worldwide and 36 are stationed in Europe, large-scale transfers to Ukraine appear unlikely. The lack of clarity has led to skepticism among some Ukrainians about the reliability and timing of the promised support amid their three-year struggle against Russia's invasion.
