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.

    Oh sorry, your supporting Ukraine, so they can continue the killing. What a moronic route.

    So just continue with the killing.

    That’s not doing anything differently.

    Succeeding land will stop the war.

    Make Russia sign a peace treaty with America and Ukraine for the land.

    It’s infinitely better than your idea of just continue the killing. “It’s fine”

    Brain-dead.

      Nah, I’m supporting Ukraine to defend their sovereignty. The killing can stop, russia needs to fuck back off to russia

      Ceeding the land to russia won’t stop any war, at best it will put a temporary pause until they want more, causing more pain and suffering and death.

      Make russia fuck back off to russia is the only viable option, unless you think appeasing fascist dictators is a good idea.

      Brain-dead.

      That is the only explanation as to why you said the things to say. Hey being self aware is step one. Maybe don’t victim blame.
