“Trump inserted a stick in the eye of Kiev”: The Times correspondent told what the US President wants

What Trump / Collage of UNIAN, screenshot, photo Getty Images wants to achieveA recent quarrel in the oval office, arranged by Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, was metaphorical, but the goal was the same – to break the will of an independent leader, writes The Times Correspondent Roger Boyser in the material.

The real shock for the US Allies, he said, was the further development of events. Initially, the United States blocked military assistance, then stopped exchange of intelligence with Ukraine. Zelensky, in turn, deliberately “reduce” – they make it clear that he has become too wrapped – and the chances of surviving his country are deliberately reduced.

It is reported that this can be interpreted as part of the Trump Plan for bringing Russia and Ukraine at the negotiation table, which ultimately could save life. But the real long -term loss, in addition to encouraging the aggressive war of the Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin, is the undermining of the intelligence between the allies, which makes the world safer.

The material states that intelligence turns into a policy tool: access to information and its dissemination become the subject of agreements, and sometimes whims. Prior to the prohibition, this had quite real consequences for Ukraine.

The purpose of this step is to show Zelensky that the disobedience of the US administration will not be left without consequences. American intelligence supplies the data needed to operate HIMARS and ATACMS missiles that are in vain without accurate goals. The US satellites can take off the take -off of Russian bombers, and the interception of internal communication of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation can disclose information about the preparation of attacks. Then the US disconnected the transmission of satellite images. Ukraine knows the location of the Russian air tabas, from which strokes were struck, but could not see whether there were planes that are preparing for departure. In other words, “Trump inserted a stick in the eye of Kiev,” says Boyes.

It systematically changes the situation on the battlefield in favor of Russia. If the US starts restricting ammunition supplies, Ukraine will be able to stay at European deliveries for a while, but will have to reduce the intensity of fire. The next step may be to turn off the satellite Internet of Starlink, owned by Ilon Mask.

Trump’s defenders consider it a lesson – a way to reduce the risk that US strategic decisions will be manipulated by a “leader who has come out of control.” Current American policy is aimed at creating alternative scenarios: to force Europe to take over the funding of Ukraine’s protection (possibly purchasing US weapons and then passing it to Kiev) or provoked by the defeat of Ukraine, which will lead to the fall of Zelensky and the emergence of a new, divided but “grateful” USA.

In the Trump World, these two results can be considered at the same time – and both as victories. “One way or another, it is not necessary to count on the rapid restoration of the supplies of intelligence and weapons. The flashman wants to get Zelensky a little more,” the journalist said.

Other news about Ukraine and USA relationsEarlier, UNIAN reported that Ukraine and the United States discussed territorial concessions. Rubio also said Russia’s positive response to the proposal for a 30-day ceasefire. He urged Russia to stop all hostilities, “that people stop died so that the balls stop flying.”

In addition, Britain helped Ukraine and the USA reach agreements in Jedda. Over the last week, European leaders led by British Prime Minister Kiir have been actively working to restore trust between the US and Ukraine.
