Biden was too much of a limpdick to do anything about it, but I do find it morbidly amusing that it took the US outright switching sides to get Europe to do something concrete.
This doesn’t sound like it’s really a new proposal:
Though variants of the proposal have been discussed without making progress since Russia launched the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, a fresh version of the plan has gained renewed impetus this week after Zelenskyy’s acrimonious meeting with US president Donald Trump on Friday.
So it’d already been discussed. I don’t know how much weight to ascribe to “renewed impetus”. It doesn’t sound like there’s yet a commitment.
That being said, it certainly beats there not being a “renewed impetus”. It could potentially develop into something real.
But at this stage, I don’t think that it’s yet over that hump.
When you’ve been relying on a free source of defense for decades, it’s attractive to divert investment into something more directly beneficial to the citizenry. Better late than never, at least.
Fucking FINALLY, Ukraine should have been designated a no fly zone the moment Russia invaded

That does certainly seem to lend credence to the position of "Europe was happy to let the US foot the bill’
