The US government has decided to stop transferring intelligence data to Ukraine, which could significantly complicate the ability of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to attack Russian troops. This was reported by the Financial Times, citing sources.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe officially confirmed the statement about the suspension of cooperation with Ukraine in the intelligence field. According to him, he is waiting for the lifting of this pause and the resumption of cooperation with Ukraine for peaceful purposes after a letter to Trump.

According to information from the Financial Times, cooperation with US intelligence has been extremely important for Ukraine in establishing and striking targets of Russian troops. However, it is noted that the US is still sharing intelligence data regarding Russia and Ukraine with its allies, including the United Kingdom.

The suspension of intelligence information exchange occurred after the suspension of military assistance to Ukraine by the decision of Trump. According to The Wall Street Journal, the suspension of military assistance will last until Trump is convinced that Zelensky is contributing to peace negotiations with Russia. Whether Zelensky's statement will be sufficient for the resumption of military assistance remains unknown.
