Defense Sec. Pete Hegseth arrived in Brussels urging allies to buy American weapons for Ukraine via PURL; Finland confirmed participation, with seven more NATO countries expected.
Zelenskyy criticized Europe’s paused contributions. The U.S. warned Putin: “It’s time to end the war and come to the peace table — or the U.S. War Department stands ready to do our part …” (Hegseth), linking it to claimed “success in Gaza.”
Zelenskyy meets Trump at the White House Friday.
Germany detailed a $500M PURL package (Patriots, radar, GMLRS, munitions).Sweden warned: “Intrude — we’ll shoot down” (referring to the airspace violations by Russia).
Poland’s FM Radosław Sikorski brought a downed Shahed-136 to London, urging “deep” strikes on Russia.
