Claim 2: “US weapons are constantly supplied to Ukraine”
DISPUTED
While multiple sources (Wikipedia and web search) confirm that the US has been the biggest source of military aid and weapons to Ukraine, a current web search result explicitly states that the Trump administration 'froze the shipment of some air defense and precision guided weapons.' This contradicts the claim that weapons are 'constantly' supplied, as there is evidence of a freeze in shipments.
