The Trump administration announced a temporary halt in the delivery of US military aid to Ukraine, in a move that blocks billions of dollars in munitions, vehicles and other equipment that were planned during Biden's presidency. The move, confirmed by a senior White House official in an interview with "Fox News", is intended to increase pressure on Kiev to agree to peace talks with Vladimir Putin.

American Government sources, as reported by "Bloomberg" and other authoritative newspapers, indicate that the suspension concerns all shipments of military equipment not yet delivered to Ukraine -including those transported by plane, ship or waiting in transit centers, for example in Poland. The measure was carried out on the order of the Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, who was charged with stopping the movement of supplies.

In an official statement, a White House official clarified that "this measure does not represent a definitive cessation of aid, but a strategic pause, intended to encourage constructive dialogue between the parties". It is thus clear that the US administration aims to strengthen its negotiating position vis-à-vis Kiev.

Local press and American institutions have also commented on the decision. According to analyses by newspapers such as "The Washington Post", this move could have significant repercussions both on the regional security front and on Ukraine's ability to defend itself in a context of prolonged conflict. In addition, some military experts point out that the blockade of supplies could create a temporary gap in Ukrainian defense capabilities, with potentially destabilizing effects in the area.

Further details will be provided in the coming days, as the situation continues to be monitored by institutional sources and industry analysts internationally.
