US President Donald Trump stated that Ukraine wouldn't have survived the war with Russia without American weapons and equipment.

He stated that Ukraine received a huge amount of money, but without the equipment and weapons provided by the US, the country wouldn't have been able to last even one or two days, according to European Pravda.

"Without our weapons and our equipment, Ukraine wouldn't have survived to fight today. You know, I mean, when it comes down to it, we've given them hundreds of billions of dollars worth of equipment, the best equipment. And we produce the best equipment in the world, but without it, they wouldn't have lasted even one or two days," he stated.

He mentioned the transfer of anti-tank missiles to Ukraine, likely referring to the Javelin man-portable air defense systems sold to Kyiv during Trump's first term.

"Remember anti-tank missiles? Remember that, right? When the tanks got stuck in the mud. And then they went around them and boom, boom, boom, boom... I said Obama gave us bed sheets, and Trump gave us anti-tank missiles as one of the most destructive weapons," Trump said.
