President Trump pauses aid to Ukraine after ‘very far away’ remarks

President Donald Trump is pausing all aid to Ukraine, including military aid and weapons that are already on their way, or are in Poland, until Volodymyr Zelenskyy shows a commitment to peace.

The pause in aid comes directly after Zelenskyy said that he sees the war going on for a ‘very, very long time.’

It also follows a showdown in the Oval Office between Zelenskyy, President Trump and Vice President JD Vance over how to end the three-year war.

A senior Trump administration official said that aid will remain on hold until President Trump sees a commitment to peace and good faith negotiations.

The Kremlin says the pause of U.S. military aid to Ukraine is the best hope for peace.
