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.

    Jfc you’re still here?

    To quote what you said

    Russia will never back the fuck off

    They will re arm and re equip and do it allll over again, maybe not to Ukraine, maybe to another country, but they will perpetuate killings, that’s what they do.

    Dumb fucks like you

    Nah, dumb fucks like you are the reason these colonists assholes keep stealing land and genociding others, literally open any history book. Because you want to appease them. They cause more suffering and death. Again, open literally any history books.

    Ukraine succeeded minerals to America because they know that they need to give something up to achieve victory.

    Nah only when trump got elected, the us was supporting with no mineral rights needing to be bargained, because trump is a fucking peice of shit.

    You say I live in a fantasy land? Oh buddy, I genuinely pitty you.

      Yeah America was pumping money into Ukraine, because the military industrial complex was massively profiting off it.

      Your idea of doing nothing is general absolutely retarded.

      And it’s the reason these wars go on and on. Because you’re too stupid and stubborn to succeed some land. And yes Russia will stop because it’s not profitable to endlessly fight, they want a solution too.

      Your solution is doing nothing, which does make you a dumb fuck.

      I don’t pity you, I think you’re a baseless idiot.

        Oh, sweet summer child. You are so naive, one day, you will understand that colonists like putin will never stop, they will continue to cause untold chaos and damage, resulting in the deaths of millions upon millions upon millions. Please, I urge you, open a history book, see the world for what it really is, not some utopia where land grabbers like putin would actually stop. He will get back to it in short oder, and then people like you will say, appease him! Stop the defense of your life, culture, family etc. Just give him what he wants! He will stop! And then, he will continue and continue, eventually coming to your country.

        Your solution is to give him what he wants, your solution will cause more death and suffering, your solution is naive, and unfounded in reality.

        Again, I pitty you.

          No he will stop.

          It costs too much money to waste continual war. It doesn’t make sense to continually be at war.

          He only did this because Ukraine wanted to join NATO.

          And Putin didn’t want NATO on his front doorstep.

          You’ve been brainwashed by western media into thinking that he’s the evil one but he’s protecting his boarders from the imminent threat of NATO.

          Maybe stop being so naive and think outside your box.

          If your family was fighting for their lives, they’d give up a little bit of land for some security.

          Of course you have no idea what that’s like, because you live in your sheltered little world, behind a computer screen.

            Right he will stop. Talk about being brain washed and naive!

            You’re regurgitating Kremlin propaganda, nato is a defense treaty.

            Jfc your lack of ability to understand the situation astounds me.

            Keep shilling for putin and his continuous land grabs. Keep excusing that all of this is his fault.

            I pitty you.

              Yeah and they call the American war machine the defence budget.

              Just because it’s called defence, doesn’t mean they won’t attack.

              Don’t be so naive.

              They prodded the bear with threatening to join NATO. And they got the whip.

                Right, and every other country who wanted to join nato? Maybe it’s because they were concerned for russias consistent aggression to their neighbour’s? Imagine being such a limp dick you invade another country only to be checked by what should have been a push over, and has now cost almost a million casualties, and depleting tank stocks, and to have naive people defend your aggression as if it was some sort of 5d chess move to defend yourself by showcasing how shitty your army is. Lol.

                Nato is a defense agreement, against aggression like say the aggression that russia is doing.

                Seriously, you naivity is showing.
