Gave no money, but gave "Javelins"

Donald Trump reminded the journalists present that, unlike Biden, he did not allocate money to Ukraine, while Biden spent 350 billion dollars on assistance.

"Biden gave Ukraine $350 billion. You know what I gave them? Nothing," Trump said.

But he noted that during his first term he gave Ukraine "Javelins," which helped repel attacks. Obama, on the other hand, merely sent sheets to Ukraine.
