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.

    So you’re saying that as Biden was lying about his efforts to stop the massacre at Gaza so that he would not piss too many of the dems voters, Trump pretends to be a traitor working for Russia so that he wouldn’t piss too much… Russia sympathizers in his base??

    You realize that doesn’t make the slightest sense?

      That’s exactly what happened. Are you aware that the government lies to the public on a daily basis?

      The government put up shows to manipulate and brainwash the public. It may look like the current situation doesn’t make sense but everything is going according to the plan. Trump is working as the perfect scapegoat for all problems and everyone is blaming him instead of putting the finger at the corrupted and rigged as fuck system. Next elections the red and blue party will win again.
