Icebreakers are ships that are designed to navigate through ice-covered waters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have a big order coming up. We\u2019re buying icebreakers. We\u2019re building them together for the most part. We\u2019re doing four over there and seven over here. We negotiated a pretty tough price I think,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe need these ships very badly because we have a lot of territory. More than anybody. And so I\u2019m very honored to have this deal,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stubb said Finland would deliver the first ship it is building for the U.S. in 2028. The ships are expected to be used in the Arctic to counter Russian and Chinese influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also in attendance in the Oval Office was Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo, who highlighted the economic importance of the deal for Finland\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis deal is very important to Finland and our economy. Because our economy is suffering a lot because of Russian aggression in Ukraine,\u201d Orpo said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reuters reported that the 11 icebreakers are expected to cost $6.1 billion. Three of the ships will be built in Galveston, Texas, while four will be built in Houma, La.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump on Thursday hosted Finnish President Alexander Stubb, where the two leaders announced an agreement for the U.S. to add 11 icebreaker ships to its fleet.
