The United States is pausing military aid to Ukraine days after U.S. President Donald Trump clashed with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in the Oval Office, a White House official confirmed on Monday.

Summary

Trump has paused all U.S. military aid to Ukraine following a dispute with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, a White House official said.

Trump claimed Zelenskiy did not show enough gratitude for U.S. support and was angered by Zelenskiy’s remarks that the war remains “very, very far away” from ending.
