"This is a business, the order of addition does not change the sum. Ukraine is still being pumped with weapons," Peskov told reporters, commenting on US plans to sell weapons to NATO countries for supplies to Ukraine, Sputnik reported.
His comments came after US President Donald Trump said late Thursday that a deal was struck with NATO to send weapons to Ukraine, with the military alliance bearing the brunt of the cost.
“We’re sending weapons to NATO, and NATO is paying for those weapons, 100 percent,” he said in a phone interview with NBC News. “So, what we’re doing is the weapons that are going out are going to NATO, and then NATO is going to be giving those weapons (to Ukraine), and NATO is paying for those weapons.”
The US president added that the deal was struck in June at the NATO summit in The Hague, Netherlands.
