Ukraine to buy military supplies through NATO agency

NATO will let Ukraine buy military supplies through its procurement agency.

The agency, called the NATO Support and Procurement Agency, handles purchasing and support for NATO members and partners.

The arrangement could help Kyiv get weapons and equipment faster and at lower cost.

It comes as relations between the United States and Ukraine have worsened, after President Donald Trump announced a diesel export deal with Russia to lower US fuel prices.

Ukraine has also complained about disruption to some intelligence sharing and its use of the Starshield satellite system.

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said he and Trump agreed in Oslo to resolve those issues at a meeting on October 20.
