Time reported March 8 that five high -ranking Western and Ukrainian officials and military said that the suspension of providing reconnaissance data from the United States to Ukraine helped Russian troops advance on the battlefield.
The unnamed officer informed Time that the suspension deprived Ukrainian troops with the opportunity to use “some of the best weapons”.
The source in the Ukrainian Government stated that the suspension had most influenced Ukrainian operations in the Kursk region, and that the Ukrainian forces have lost their ability to identify Russian aircraft approaching Ukraine, which jeopardize the ability to prevent civilians and military personnel about future Russian strikes.
Literally: “ISW cannot check the statements on the consequences of suspension of exchange of intelligence between the US and Ukraine on the ground.
However, according to ISW estimates, the complete cessation of exchanging reconnaissance information from the United States will damage Ukraine’s ability to use strokes for efficiency on the battlefield and protection against Russian offensive operations, as well as allow Russian troops to intensify their unmanned and rocket strikes on the Ukrainian rear, which will influence the millions of Ukrainian.
Details: At the same time, European states continue to make efforts to expand the exchange of intelligence with Ukraine after suspending cooperation with the United States. However, Europe is unlikely to be able to fully compensate for the US intelligence capabilities in the near future.
