Pentagon’s pause in Ukraine aid could be Trump’s “goodwill” to Putin — military observer

Pentagon’s pause in Ukraine aid could be Trump’s “goodwill” to Putin — military observer
Military observer Vasyl Pekhno said this on the air with Espreso TV."Regarding U.S. aid – I’m pretty skeptical about what’s going on. The U.S. was supposed to send Ukraine 30 Patriot missiles, which are capable of intercepting ballistic and aeroballistic missiles. But now, according to media reports, it’s not 30, but only 10 missiles. So, a bit of a conspiracy theory popped into my head – I’ll explain why.This move by the Pentagon to cut arms supplies to Ukraine happened right around the time Trump was speaking with Putin. I think they were playing a certain card, like, ‘Vladimir, stop your aggression, stop attacking Ukraine, because I’m doing what you asked. I’m cutting off weapons to Ukraine.’ That was one of Russia’s demands. So this could have been a goodwill gesture from Trump to Putin – a setup for talks. And those talks did happen. Trump basically said: not just that I will stop, but I already stopped – here’s your deal," Pekhno said.According to the military observer, talks between Trump and Putin have already happened, and Trump now realizes Putin never planned to stop. That leaves Trump disappointed in Putin and needing to take action."What’s the logical next step after Putin’s slap in the face? Logically, it would be to boost Ukraine’s defenses – not just send 30 Patriot missiles, but 100. But that’s not happening. The worst part is, even the original 30 missiles we were promised haven’t been delivered. They’re only sending 10. That’s three times less than expected.So it turns out all this talk about the U.S. helping us is fake. It’s more of the same game with Putin. Trump doesn’t want the war in Ukraine to be associated with his name. So he won’t fully arm Ukraine. He’ll just maneuver – send just enough so we don’t die, but not enough for us to gain the advantage," Pekhno concluded.BackgroundOn July 2, it was reported that the United States had paused the delivery of some anti-aircraft missiles and precision-guided munitions to Ukraine due to concerns over its own stockpiles.The next day, reports emerged that the U.S. Department of Defense was still providing President Donald Trump with recommendations on military aid to Ukraine.Later, media reported that U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth had unilaterally ordered the halt of certain arms shipments to Ukraine, despite an internal analysis showing these supplies would not affect U.S. combat readiness.On July 8, Trump announced that the United States would continue supplying weapons to Ukraine. The Pentagon confirmed additional military aid.
