Trump Suspends Military Aid to Ukraine - CNN.


Trump Halts Military Aid to Ukraine
U.S. President Donald Trump has halted the provision of American military aid to Ukraine following a confrontation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This was reported by a White House representative.
According to him, Trump is focused on resolving the conflict peacefully and is waiting for his partners to also support this idea. The aid will be verified to ensure it truly contributes to solving the issue.
The pause will affect all military equipment that has not yet been delivered to Ukraine. This is a reaction to Zelensky's bad behavior, which Trump considers unacceptable.
The Biden administration rushed to supply weapons to Ukraine before the pause begins. The U.S. provided Ukraine with modern weaponry, including ATACMS missiles. However, the suspension of supplies may negatively impact Ukraine's ability to attack Russia.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio demands an apology from Zelensky for his behavior.
Trump's decision to stop military aid to Ukraine prioritizes Europe, which will not be able to fully replace this aid. European officials have called this decision a mistake.
The suspension of aid is expected to lead to a distrust of the U.S. among the Ukrainian people and escalate the conflict with Russia. Defending Ukraine from Russian attacks will become an issue.
Despite this, Ukraine has expressed gratitude to the U.S. for its assistance during the war. The Biden administration quickly delivered critical munitions and supplies to Ukraine.
