## Key points

- Israel can still purchase US weapons.
- The current agreement provides about $3.8 billion annually through 2028.

## Summary

Trump has now said US aid to Israel will end at the close of this year, arguing that Israel can fund its own defence. The announcement would accelerate a change to a long-running security arrangement, though the article gives no details of a formal agreement or how the change would be implemented.

Trump described the support as about $4 billion in money and military equipment, and said Israel could still buy US weapons. The existing US-Israel agreement provides about $3.8 billion annually through 2028; Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has previously said he wants to phase out reliance on US aid. Trump also framed the decision as a response to political criticism of foreign assistance and a way to reduce government spending.
