American weapons have ceased to cross the border, as stated by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
The United States has halted military assistance to Ukraine, which includes the suspension of weapons that were already en route, Tusk informed journalists. This move was previously reported by various US media outlets.
“Today, a decision was announced to suspend American aid for Ukraine,” Tusk conveyed to reporters prior to a government meeting on Tuesday. There has been no official announcement from Washington regarding this situation.
“Reports that are coming from the border, from our hub in Jasionka, have confirmed the announcements of the American side,” the Polish prime minister noted. The Jasionka airport, situated in southeastern Poland, has been repurposed into a significant supply and transport hub for Western military assistance directed toward Ukraine.
Several US media outlets, such as Bloomberg, the New York Times, and CNN, reported that US President Donald Trump had paused military aid after a fallout with Ukraine's President Vladimir Zelensky during a meeting in Washington last Friday. According to the NYT, the president’s directive impacts more than $1 billion in “arms and ammunition in the pipeline and on order.”
Tusk indicated that American weapons that had already arrived in Poland were not anticipated to be sent to Ukraine following Trump’s decision. He also suggested that these actions might indicate that the Trump administration could potentially “start lifting” anti-Russian sanctions.
Last month, Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin had a phone conversation focused on resolving the Ukraine conflict and improving bilateral relations. The US president subsequently mentioned he was “trying to do some economic development deals” with Moscow and hinted that sanctions could be lifted “at some point.”
Moscow responded positively, expressing openness to economic cooperation with the US and calling for the removal of restrictions.
According to Tusk, these developments were placing the EU and Ukraine “in a more difficult situation.” He emphasized that the bloc's priority was to “increase its defense capabilities as quickly as possible” while working closely with “neighboring” NATO states.
On Wednesday, CIA Director John Ratcliffe confirmed to Fox Business that Washington has also halted intelligence sharing with Kiev. He described the measure as temporary, aimed at ensuring that Kiev remains committed to the peace process. Initially, Sky News reported on the same day that the suspension was “selective,” but later it was updated to indicate a total suspension.
Moscow had previously welcomed the reports regarding the suspension, stating that if Washington adhered to this decision, it would “probably be the best contribution to the cause of peace.”
