The US is reducing military aid to Ukraine
A new serious conflict has emerged in world politics. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
On July 7, US President Donald Trump emphasized the need to supply more defense weapons to Ukraine during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. According to Trump, Ukraine must have the ability to defend itself, as the country is currently facing serious threats and attacks.
Trump also expressed dissatisfaction with his phone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin on July 3. He assessed Putin's position as dangerous, noting that the Russian leader "wants to go to the end."
In this situation, Russian troops launched a record number of missiles and drones at Ukraine overnight — 550 in total. Discussions among US officials continue regarding the possibility of "freezing" part of military aid to Ukraine.
According to Politico, this issue will be resolved based on negotiations between the US special envoy Kit Kellog and Ukraine's Defense Minister Rustem Umerov. The meetings will take place on July 10-11 in Rome and later at an international conference in Kyiv.
On July 2, American media reported that the US had partially halted the delivery of certain important weapons and ammunition to Ukraine. This list includes interceptor missiles for the Patriot system, Stinger and NASAMS air defense systems, as well as missiles for F-16 fighter jets.
Experts emphasize that this decision could negatively affect Ukraine's ability to combat Russia's intensified air attacks. Zamin.uz will continue to provide its readers with accurate, impartial, and timely information on the war in Ukraine, US and Western assistance, and global security issues.
