Suspension of US aid
On the morning of March 4, it became known that US President Donald Trump had ordered a pause in all US military aid to Ukraine in order to force Kyiv to demonstrate a "good faith commitment" to peace.
One of the US officials said in a comment to CNN that Ukraine would feel the consequences of the suspension of US military aid after some time. Perhaps a few days or weeks. However, as soon as the stocks of weapons and ammunition begin to run out, the country will face serious consequences.
As journalist Ostap Yarysh reported, the US decision to suspend aid to Ukraine will primarily affect the supply of air defense missiles and ammunition for HIMARS and artillery.
Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna stressed that the US decision to temporarily suspend military aid to Ukraine means that Europe must help Ukraine more and faster than before to fill this gap.
