Trump gives Putin an ultimatum after NATO weapons announcement
‘Outnumbered’ panel breaks down President Donald Trump‘s ‘major’ shift in Russian-Ukraine policy
President Donald Trump’s meeting on Monday with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte marks more than a diplomatic courtesy. It signals a sharp, strategic shift in the U.S. posture toward Russia’s war against Ukraine—one that replaces hesitation with resolve, passive support with deterrent action, and vague calls for peace with a clear doctrine: peace through strength.
Over the past week, the Trump administration has taken several bold steps. First, after briefly pausing military shipments amid a Pentagon inventory review, the president confirmed that the U.S. will resume sending Patriot missile systems to Ukraine — air defense platforms capable of intercepting Russian ballistic missiles. These systems are vital, as they are the only defense Ukraine currently possesses against such threats. More importantly, Trump signaled that the United States is now willing to provide offensive weapons as well, marking a clear escalation in America’s role.
