Trump 'not sure' about letting Ukraine build Patriot missiles: FT

U.S. President Donald Trump said he was "not sure" whether Washington will allow Ukraine to build Patriot surface-to-air interceptor missiles, the Financial Times reported on July 30.

The issue, considered a top priority for Kiev, was discussed when Trump met Ukraine's leader Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House this week.

Trump told FT in a phone interview that he was "not sure" about the issue, adding that "we're looking into it."

"It's a very extraordinary weapon, and . . . we have to be a little bit careful of who we licence to. We don't really licence equipment," the Republican president was quoted as saying.
