US Secretary of State Antony Blinken tells CNN's Christiane Amanpour the U.S. is very focused on providing air defense systems to Ukraine. Antony Blinken, US Secretary of State: “We’re now very focused on air defense systems and not just us, many other countries. And we are working to make sure the Ukrainians get those systems as quickly as possible but also as effectively as possible – making sure that they are trained on them, making sure that they have the ability to maintain them. And all of that has to come together and it is. We have a very deliberate process established by the Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin, in Ramstein, Germany that meets regularly to make sure that the Ukrainians are getting what they need, when they need it.”
