US President Donald Trump has halted all military aid to Ukraine following a tense exchange with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The move, which has sparked international concern, is seen as a significant shift in America’s role in the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
Trump’s decision reportedly comes after Zelensky expressed skepticism about the possibility of a near-term peace deal with Russia.
Frustrated by what he perceived as resistance to diplomatic efforts, Trump responded by suspending all undelivered military support, including shipments currently in transit.
The pause in aid has raised alarm among Us allies and European nations, many of whom have warned that Ukraine’s defensive capabilities could be severely impacted.
Some European leaders have even suggested deploying troops to Ukraine, though their support remains contingent on the U.S. position.
Meanwhile, US Vice President JD Vance has criticized Zelensky’s approach to peace negotiations but remains hopeful that Ukraine will eventually engage in meaningful talks.
The situation underscores the growing divide in Western strategy regarding the war, with Trump advocating for a resolution through diplomacy while Zelensky continues to push for sustained military support.
