licenses to be issued for Ukraine to produce anti-ballistic missiles.

Now, these anti-ballistic missiles are essential for defense against the Russian military.

missile and drone attacks that continue to try to terrorize civilians and indeed wind up killing scores of them, including this past week.

It's the one real gap that Ukrainians have in terms of, and the significance of those licenses is it goes down to the working level, which is Ukraine can now talk to U.S.

companies.

They can talk to U.S.

government agencies about, can we get a production project started inside Ukraine with U.S.

support?

Same thing they're trying to do with European companies.

I have to hasten to add it takes time to set up those production facilities.

This is not an immediate fix against the Russians.

I also have to hasten to add that the United States is not going to directly provide anti-ballistic missiles, the best known of which are the Patriot missiles, in part because they've expended them all over the ill-fated war in Iran.

But what it shows is that Trump believes Ukraine is winning, having spent years thinking that Russia is winning.

He's flipped, and that changes the political space where you get other discussions between the Americans and the Ukrainians, for example, on drone production and technology.

No, he got confused.

You know, he got confused and then he tried to cover it.

But it wasn't the only slip that he made, Pat.

I mean, all of a sudden he was referring to the Islamic Republic of Japan, which I'm sure surprised a lot of Japanese people that their emperor had changed religion overnight and embraced Islam.

He was having to be led by President Erdogan, the host of the

summit at times.
