The US decision to halt weapons deliveries will not doom Ukraine to defeat, but it will place many more lives in jeopardy and prolong the war by convincing Putin that he can achieve a decisive victory over an abandoned Ukraine, writes Peter Dickinson atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainea…

As more Russian Shaheds make it to Kyiv and air defense shakes the night ahead of a possible missile attack, I can’t stop thinking: there was a choice. Give Ukraine what it needs to stop this. Instead, they’re twisting Ukraine’s arm and emboldening Russia.

After Defense Department pauses arms shipments to #Ukraine and hour-long Trump-Putin phone call, #Russia barrages Kyiv with large-scale missile and drone attack. Will Trump continue to sit on his hands and do nothing as Putin mocks him? This is weakness.

550 aerial weapons used against democratic Ukraine by fascist Russia in last night's massive air attack - that's a new record, up from 537 used in the Russian attack on June 29. Air alert in Kyiv still on - just got warning on my phone of increased air threat in Kyiv.

Our Dutch intelligence agencies reveal Russia is intensifying its use of chemical weapons in Ukraine. It is normalized and widespread. Chloropicrin is dropped by drones to drive soldiers out of trenches, and then kill them. Horrible and unacceptable. reuters.com/world/europe/r…

The Europeans are right to protest against Trump withholding air defenses from Ukraine. But — France and Italy in particular — need a hard look in the mirror. Lockheed Martin invested in a new plant in 2022 and is more than doubling its output of Patriot PAC-3 missiles to 650 a

Yes, it’s infuriating that the United States has halted delivery of critical Patriot interceptors, and yes, the 30 PAC-3 MSEs stored in Poland would have helped and are badly needed. But Western missile defense cannot keep pace with Russia’s missile production - across all

One of the scariest nights in Ukraine: #Russia attacked peaceful cities with 550 targets—incl drones, missiles, & ballistics. The main target was the capital. Residential buildings, educational institutions, medical facilities, and transportation infrastructure were damaged.

Massive Russian attack last night has caused fires and much damage, including to the Polish consulate in Kyiv. President Trump, Putin is mocking your peace efforts. Please restore supplies of anti-aircraft ammunition to Ukraine and impose tough new sanctions on the aggressor.

After a terrifying and sleepless night in Kyiv I received a gift from the frontline - from combatant and artist Pavlo Didula, and the day immediately became brighter. Thank you, dear Kateryna Zarembo 🇺🇦 for bringing and presenting it.

"Vladimir Putin is not looking for a cease-fire, and he does not want to negotiate. Why? Because he believes that he can win. Thanks to the actions of the U.S. government, he still thinks that he can conquer all of Ukraine" theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Ukrainian culture is a prime target for Russian missiles and drones: a publishing house was among last night’s targets in Kyiv.

As Americans celebrate Independence Day, here in Ukraine we endured a night of terror — 500 Russian aerial attacks across the country, including in Central Kyiv. The cost is staggering. More than 50% of the 600 members of AmCham Ukraine 🇺🇦 have suffered direct damage to their

The idea that EU countries are shipping goods to Russia while Ukraine burns is terrifying and appalling, but this is exactly what's happening and it's been going on for over three years. In the EU, short-term greed overrides what's right. Today's substack: robinjbrooks.substack.com/p/the-eu-cover…

Trump "is essentially lifting sanctions on Russia" by not updating them the way Biden did as Russian companies find ways to evade them. That contributes to Putin's refusal to accept a ceasefire. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
