The U.S. has halted intelligence sharing with Ukraine, including targeting data for U.S.-supplied weapons, adding pressure for peace negotiations with Russia. The decision affects HIMARS and ATACMS missile systems, as well as Ukrainian-made long-range drones, limiting Kyiv’s ability to strike Russian targets. Some Ukrainian missile operators report they are no longer receiving key targeting information, weakening their offensive capabilities. The move highlights President Trump’s shift toward a more conciliatory approach to Moscow, diverging from previous strong U.S. support for Ukraine. The policy change underscores growing tensions between Washington and Kyiv amid ongoing geopolitical realignments.
