U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered a suspension of all military aid to Ukraine, escalating pressure on President Volodymyr Zelensky mere days after a heated exchange in the Oval Office cast doubt on U.S. support for Kyiv.

A senior Defense Department official told Bloomberg that all U.S. military assistance to Ukraine is on hold until Trump determines that Ukrainian leaders are making a genuine effort toward peace.

The pause affects not only future aid but also weapons already in transit, including shipments on aircraft and ships, as well as equipment awaiting transfer in Poland.

      Lemmy is also filled with a lot of stuff. Not a reason to bring it up in random out-of-context conversations.

      Go preach to people who do that. Here you were just trying to throw shade at Ukrainians. “See, everyone is bad?!”

          You are trying to fabricate sympathy for Russians in a post where nobody is attacking them (as russians), about Ukraine military aid. You know what you are doing, you can make the paraculo as much as you want.

              You are not though. That’s the point. You are making up bullshit to pretend you are to use “pointing out racism” as a moral shield. Pathetic, in fact.
