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.
Edit: changed source from Bloomberg to Kyiv Independent b/c there’s no paywall and more detail in the story.
This is so cool. STOP FUNDING WAR.
Guess what. War is gonna happen regardless. Except now the Ukrainians are going to have a harder time fighting back, while the russians start their pogroms.
Right then why fund them and send people to their deaths?
Why not just succeed a little land and sign a cease fire
Russia will keep killing Ukrainians, so they need be forced to stop. Letting russia next it’s neighbours is a fucking stupid take. Appeasing the colonial fascist has never gone well before, and it won’t now. Ukrainians are fighting for their homes. Succeeding land like Crimea didn’t stop russia from invading so it won’t stop it again.
It’s better to try something. What your idea is to do nothing. Great idea, let’s just continue letting people die.

No, my idea isn’t to “do nothing”. It’s to fund and support Ukrainian sovereignty lol. No clue where the fuck you are pulling that from. You want more people to die, let russia have it’s way, way more people will die. I’m glad your comfortable with the thought of other countries just annexing territory on a whim. Fucking shit tier take
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.
Oh sorry, your supporting Ukraine, so they can continue the killing. What a moronic route.
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.
I kinda wonder what people in the 3 letter agencies are thinking right now. I would hope that enough of these agencies actually view Trump as a fundamental threat to democracy, because he actually is. People have warned for this to happen, for a while now, even though many are surprised at the speed at which it happens. But still, you would kind of hope for some of these agencies to actually stand for the constitution, instead of for the ruling party and his current president.
The US is so much more than just the current political ruling class. It’s sad that there seems at least, to be so little visible opposition to their efforts to derail the US geopolitical power and to overthrow the system of law and order. One who the Republicans should hold deep, and definitely the people who pledge their allegiance to the constitution. I wonder if it would have gone different if someone like Saunders or Obama would have tried a similar play.
Derailing US political power is a good thing. Not good for the US, but good for the world.
We will see. Pax Americana has been a hugely stabilizing force in many regions around the world. If an empire falls, fighting over the power vacuum commences. Empires get replaced by chaos and eventually other empires.
