The US stops military assistance to Ukraine and what will happen next?

US military assistance for Ukraine was stopped after the impressive fall between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian leader Valodimir Zelensky, leaving the country in an extremely unstable situation, strategists say.

Anonymous White House official and American official reported on Monday Affiliate network CNBC NBC News News that military support was stopped While the situation is being assessed.

“It was clear to the president that he was focused on peace. We needed our partners to give this goal. We stop and consider our help to make sure it contributes to the decision,” NBC News and other media confirmed.

Neither the White House nor Ukraine publicly commented on the statement. CNBC has contacted both to confirm the move and for further comment and waiting for the answer.

If this will confirm this step will be unprecedented but not surprisingly given Friday at an oval office in an oval officeending when the President Zelensky left the White House with a hurry and Multimile -billioncular critical minerals that have not subscribed.

Defense strategists say that if the US immediately refused all military support to Ukraine, which requires a permanent stream of weapons and ammunition to fight Russia after three years of war, the forecast is undoubtedly negative.

“This decision does not concern the economy. This is fundamentally due to Trump’s opinion that Russia is ready to make a peaceful deal, and only Ukraine is an obstacle,” said Tuesday Tuesday, Tuesday, Deputy Director-General for Defense of Russia to reaction to US military assistance.

“But there is no evidence that Russia will be ready to make a deal and that it would be. Indeed, this decision will encourage Putin to ask for more – including Ukrainian demilitarization and neutrality,” he said in the comments by email.

Chalmers noted that the “nightmare scenario” is now that the US and Russia will soon announce the deal, and then they say Ukraine and Europe to “take it or leave”.

“What will be considered the most is how far the UK and Europe are ready to help Ukraine contrary to the recent US estimates, it is only 20% of the total military equipment provided by the Ukrainian forces, now in the US, 55%-by Ukraine and 25% of Europe and the rest of the world, but 20%. He.

The Kremlin has already responded to the news on Tuesday, saying it hoped that Ukraine would be proposed to achieve a peaceful transaction as a result.

“Of course, we still need to learn about the details. But if it is true, then this decision can really push the Kyiv regime to the peace process,” said Dmitry Peskov’s press on Tuesday, NBC News said.

“The bad news is that the financing of the US military assistance to Ukraine is now exhausted. Good news is that the permanent flow of American equipment will continue to come to Ukraine from previously announced obligations – if Trump allows it, Mark F. Canun and Chris H.

Park; said in the analysis Posted on Saturday, which raised the question: “Is Ukraine condemned?”

“The equipment for the reduction is still sent. The Trump administration can send that deliveries are stopped despite the reports of the previous administration,” they noted.

“It is more difficult to stop supplying recently manufactured weapons from Ukraine’s contracts signed with the defense industry, although with the funds provided by the United States.

Although this requirement would be stretching, Trump administration did not hesitate to use the ambulance “for their political purposes,” they noted.

What is happening on the battlefield depends heavily on the amount of equipment put, they concluded.

“The essence: The prospects for Ukraine are gloomy. At best, the United States and European aid continues, which is enough for Ukraine to stabilize the advanced lines, stupid Russian attacks and buy time for negotiations, perhaps with Russia more ready to conclude a transaction because its victims are 1 million.”

“In the worst case, the United States disables the supply of equipment. The fact that Ukraine receives from Europeans, other world sources, and its own industry will retain its strength in this area, but with reducing opportunities. Russian attacks will receive more and more territories; Ukrainian lines will break at some point. Ukraine will have to accept a restless, even Drakan.”

Tensions between Washington and Kiev increased steadily after Trump’s inauguration in January and further If the United States started preliminary negotiations with RussiaWith the exception of Ukraine, for the way to peace.

Trump has already threatened to withdraw the US support for the destroyed war if Zelensky did not sign the coveted critical minerals from the United States, saying him on Friday: “You either make a deal or we came out.”

European leaders already have hastily threatened To discuss what role they might play in Ukraine – and what constant support they can give Kyiv – in the post -war scenario that can be directed to the country.

By -apparent Announcement of plans To increase protection costs that can potentially mobilize up to 800 billion euros.

“Europe is ready for a mass increase in defense costs. Both to respond to short-term urgency to act and support Ukraine, but also decide the long-term need to take much more responsibility for our own European security,” the press statement said.

But Given the obvious exception of Kiev and Europe with early negotiations how to end the warAnd without security guarantees, registered by the United States for Ukraine, the forecast looks uncertain about what the role of Europe will be.

When the US stops all military assistance supplies to Ukraine, this step firmly puts the ball in the European court, as, to what extent, whether they are ready to enter the violation to help Ukraine.

CSIS strategists emphasize that the US is not the only supplier of equipment to Ukraine.

“As Germany Kiel -Institute is calculated, European military assistance for Ukraine was comparable to assistance in the US, approximately $ 1.8 billion a month. European aid was especially important in the late 2023 and early 2024, when the funds were over while Congress discussed the next package,” they said.

“The European Union is also approved Using frozen Russian sovereign assets to support Ukraine’s military needs. The bad news is that Europeans already supply as much as they can, given the deterioration of their defense industry. In addition, if the US stops help, many European countries will also scale, ”they said.
