In response, Trump committed to exploring available options in Europe to meet these needs.
The discussion further touched on Ukraine's electrical supply and nuclear power plants. Trump noted that U.S. assistance could be instrumental in managing and protecting these essential infrastructures, emphasizing that robust support would offer the best safeguard for Ukraine's energy future. ⚡️
