US Halts Military Aid to Ukraine Amid Push for Peace Talks

[Social Media]

 

The United States has decided to pause military aid to Ukraine, with the White House emphasizing the need for a commitment to peace from all parties involved. "The President has been clear that he is focused on peace. We need our partners to be committed to that goal as well.

 

We are pausing and reviewing our aid to ensure that it is contributing to a solution," a White House official told CBS News, as reported by the BBC. Reports indicate that all weapons currently in transit to Ukraine will be put on hold. Bloomberg adds that US military equipment, including weapons still at depots in Poland, will also be affected by this pause. Officials suggest that this measure is temporary and will remain in place until President Trump is satisfied that Ukraine is demonstrating a commitment to peace negotiations with Russia.  

 

The Trump administration appears to be pressing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to accept an economic agreement regarding mineral resources and to engage in peace talks with Russia, rather than providing him with the security assurances he has requested. Instead of focusing on military support, Trump’s aides have shifted discussions toward potential "economic assurances" for Ukraine.  

 

The timing of this move is significant, occurring less than 24 hours before President Trump’s scheduled address to Congress. This address presents him with an opportunity to highlight his administration’s actions and achievements, with securing a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia being a priority he has long pursued.  

 

During an interview with Fox News, Senator JD Vance stated that the possibility of renewed negotiations remains open, but only if Ukraine is serious about peace. "Of course, the door is open," Vance said, adding, "So long as Zelensky is willing to seriously talk peace. You can't come into the Oval Office or anywhere else and refuse to even discuss the details of a peace deal."

 

According to Vance, the core issue is Zelensky’s insistence on security guarantees before engaging in peace discussions, whereas the White House maintains that such assurances should only come after a deal is reached. "When they're willing to talk peace, I think President Trump will be the first person to pick up the phone," Vance stated.  

 

As the situation unfolds, the halt in military aid marks a major shift in US policy toward the ongoing conflict, signaling a push for diplomatic resolutions over continued military assistance.

Russia wants 'piece'

Two takeaways:

 

1) The utter unreliability of the United States as an ally. They will "cut and run", but then we all knew that anyway.

 

2) Equally unreliable the gob-smacking naivity of believing that if you cut supplies to Ukraine then the Russians will come to peace talks, absolute <deleted>, they will simply renew their offensives against a weakened Ukraine in the hope of defeating them - but again perhaps the US knew that anyway.

 

Absolute shame on the USA.

 

Incidentally, the gun shown in the picture is a British designed and built 105mm "Light Gun". They come in two versions, L118 uses a longer range British ammunition system, L119 the American 105mm system. Both types of ammunition and the gun can be manufactured in Europe, so all is not lost.

I hope you were this outraged when Biden's army fled Afghanistan like scared schoolgirls leaving mayhem, death and destruction? Why do I get the feeling you are only outraged when it comes to the orange fella?

The US's big mistake was fomenting the 2014 coup and destabilization of the country, compounded by corrupt politicians like Biden essentially running the country for profit. Now it's suddenly all Trump's fault? Jog on.

This.

 

It will be very difficult to negotiate a peace deal while you are funding one side of the war.

 

Another smart move by DT and JD.

Congratulations to Vladimir and Russia, who have won the cold war. I never expected the US to fold so completely and with such a pathetic display of simpering compliance but I guess they have been routed from the inside.

Sorry, to clarify, did you go to fight at the frontlines for your beloved Ukraine/Azov goosesteppers? Or should it be the job of other people? I expect you did seeing as you have such conviction. If not, did you not contribute to Russia winning the war they were always going to win?

So many apalling takes by lefties now their boondoggle and war is ending. 

[RuamRudy]

Let's hope that the more courageous leaders of the world maintain Russian sanctions, and that putin remains answerable to the world for the war crimes he has perpetrated.

 

I suspect that Trump will do his upmost to protect his boss but you have to keep hopeful that justice will prevail. If not, what else do you have?

What's truly appalling is that after 3 years of a country being invaded by a foreign aggressor and the rest of the world trying to support it in the face of undeserved atrocities, all the maga apologists come suddenly appear trying to shore up their beloved, compromised and truly woeful clown of a leader when he shows just how utterly devoid of decency, honesty and integrity he truly is. Shame on you.

I'll take that as a hard no then. Others should die for your beliefs gleaned from watching msm.

Before this war, I’d bet that the opinion of Ukraine (amongst posters here) was that it is just some corrupt backwater with mail order brides.

 

Probably not much different than Russia….only poorer.

 

And now we care soooo much about them that random strangers will argue back and forth online……for years.

[Taboo2]

Can you imagine if LBJ did this back in 1966?  So many young American kids would be alive today?  Thank God for President Trump.

 

No more money and weapons for a war that is going on for another 5 years!

 

No more dead young men on either side!

 

War is hell...all keyboard and <removed> folks need to understand that.  WAR is HELL on Earth.

Hey dude, why don't you run to Ukraine?  Seriously, they are recruiting.  Go ahead and fight.  We Americans will be glad to cut off our weapons and money and run...OK!  Understand?

I love our President for being wise enough to know that this war will go on and will cost us 400 billion dollars...and still no movement on either side.

 

So, please go sign up  and fight for the Ukranian Mafia!

Looks more like champion of democracy Ukraine has thugs out literally kidnapping men on the street to go fight little Z and the western left's war. Saw multiple videos of this with thevictim and family in utter distress. Disgusting. Thanks to Trump for ending this madness.

Hiding in mummy's basement a nice condo in Thailand and posting warmongering items is so much more enjoyable than actually putting your boots where your mouth says they should be. Seems it's usually the ones that complain about a certain person's bone spurs .

You are so keen on the war, so why are you posting about it and not at the front lines fighting for Zelensky?

Trump is unfit to represent the Office of the President of the the United States of America.

If Putin were to win the war in Ukraine it will only bring his borders closer  to NATO countries Putin has very clearly stated he wishes to re-establish the Russian Empire so his propaganda for the war are lies upon lies.

If he is upsetting the liberals he must be doing something right.The war is IMO a sham that was intended to bleed Russia for as long as possible using the Ukrainians as cannon fodder, as they did in Afghanistan. It ended in Afghanistan with Gorbachev and Ukraine is going to end with Trump. Good job Mr Trump.

Goes to show how stupid so many leaders of countries are, to waste their money on an American proxy war that could never be won.

MSM propaganda. Putin doesn't have the forces to take all of Ukraine. He is taking what he wants, and when he has it he'll still be a long way from NATO.
