Jared Kushner, a senior advisor to U.S. President Donald Trump, spoke Thursday evening with Ukrainian National Security Advisor Rustem Umerov, according to a CBS report cited by N12's Asaf Rozentzweig. During the call, Umerov presented Kyiv's request for Trump to facilitate the establishment of Patriot missile production lines on Ukrainian soil — an initiative Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has publicly advocated in recent weeks. The call follows a series of high-level contacts between the U.S. and Ukraine, including a lengthy phone conversation between Trump and Zelensky earlier this month, during which Zelensky said he agreed with Trump on Crimea. Zelensky and Trump are also expected to meet in person at the upcoming G7 summit in Europe.
