France will help Ukraine with intelligence dataThe minister made his statement on March 6.
Our intelligence is sovereign...
with our own capabilities.
We hand that over to the Ukrainians.
Sebastian Lecornu French Minister of Defense We will remind you that on March 5, CIA Director John Ratcliffe officially announced a temporary halt to the provision of weapons and intelligence to Ukraine.The Institute for the Study of War later reported that the suspension of intelligence sharing between the United States and Ukraine would allow Russia to intensify its drone and missile strikes on Ukrainian cities.According to a Politico source, Ukraine receives 80 of its intelligence from allied countries, mainly from the United States.
Its bound to be a huge setback for the Ukrainians, I dont think theres any denying that.
The British will try to fill that gap.
We have listening posts at RAF Akrotiri, which is sovereign, we have Rivet Joint flights in the area.
But obviously we dont have all the capabilities that the Americans have, and there are things that are simply irreplaceable, said Neil Barnett, CEO of Istok Associates Limited.
