Kremlin strikes were condemned by most Western leaders, including Donald Trump, who said that last week would call a Ukrainian journalist to deliver more Patriot missiles to Ukraine.

Instead, on Tuesday, it was reported that Patriotic missiles and other ammunition were stopped due to a defense examination inspired by the expenditures of hundreds of US prevention air defense missiles used to help protect the Israeli cities and Qatar from the Iranian bombings during the war last month.

According to a defense department spokesman Sean Parnell, the Pentagon confirmed that the Pentagon on Wednesday confirmed that the export of US weapons may affect countries outside Ukraine. It was not clear whether this could contain Israel, which bought 68% of foreign weapons from the USA.

Parnell’s words came during a briefing where ammunition defended and paused the delivery of the ammunition to Ukraine, but refused to discuss which special ammunition was taken back.

Uz We see this as a common sense of common sense… To evaluate which ammunition was sent and where it is sent. But we want to be very clear about this last point. Let us know that our army has everything everywhere, anytime, all over the world. ”

Ukraine warned that Washington called to Kiev in the US ambassador to continue to underline the importance of ongoing military aid and that any deduction would strengthen Russia in the war in Ukraine.

“The Ukrainian side stressed that any delay or postponement in supporting Ukraine’s defense capabilities will encourage the attacker to maintain war and terrorism instead of seeking peace,” Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said. He said.

The so -called priorities have strong allies at the Republican Party, including JD Vance, the leading critic of the US aid to Ukraine.

Parnell, “for a long time, for four years under the direction of Biden, we were giving weapons and ammunition without thinking how many of them,” he said. “I think that this president was chosen to put this country in the first place and defend the homeland, and then… The transition to the Indo-Pacific. Part of our business is to give the president a framework that we can use to evaluate how many ammunition we have and where we send.”
