Seems Ukraine will also soon receive the license to produce Patriot missiles.

Even if it does, it'll take year+(?) to actually produce them.

Sure, but it's all part of a building, positive, trajectory. Each little bit helps Ukraine towards being able to evict the invaders.

Well, the Orange it reportedly already having second thoughts. I wouldn't count too much that it will actually happen because he doesn't care at all about Ukraine.

You're absolutely right, Mango Mussolini is an unreliable ally, but if the MIC can make money for no effort in licence fees I suspect this will stick.

Hopefully. Though there might be other factors in play, such as "friendly" call with Putin. Fingers crossed.

Trump wants to be associated with a winner. He would have happily let Ukraine burn. If Russia was winning, this meeting would never have happened. Zelenskyy knows this, but he also knows that an unreliable US ally is better than a US that’s helping the enemy.

Good Meeting? So basically Trump didn't soil himself or fall asleep?

So we can assume Zelenskyy bribed Trump with billions of deals for his kids.

He doesn't need to. He realized he just needs to call him a great leader and Trump will eat that right up. Trump would then do everything for him until his aides tell him not to.
