Senate moves to limit Trump’s control over Ukraine military support

The Senate is trying to curb the policy of the Trump administration towards Ukraine, which has oscillated between cooperation and sudden return, estimating colleagues and officials.

President Donald Trump recently agreed to send weapons to Ukraine, the annual defense policy bill of the Senate would curb courageous that has aroused bipartisan concern, especially about the Pentagon decisions.

The National Defense Authority Act (NDAA), unveiled on Friday after a bilateral talks by the Senate Armed Services Committee, included specific railings on US military cooperation. A provision determines that the Defense Secretary unilaterally cannot target military intelligence sharing and cooperation with Ukraine.

The move follows the March 1 episode in which the Trump administration suddenly stopped both intelligence support and arms shipment in Ukraine, while the President pursued backchainal diplomacy with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Although the freeze was later removed, the incident worried the MPs on both sides of the corridor.

The NDAA also confirmed that it is the United States policy that help Ukraine maintain a reliable defense “and Ukraine increases the security aid initiative by $ 500 million.

Bills prevent the Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to reduce the US force posture in Europe or to abandon the American role as the supreme analysis and the NATO’s supremely concerned commander without an impact analysis and certification that such changes align with American interests.

Trump’s rhetoric includes new provisions amidst a remarkable change, which has changed more important to Ukraine and more significantly of Putin.

Earlier this month, Pentagon once again stopped the delivery of defensive assistance to Kiev, which cited the internal assessment of US StockPiles. Reports suggest that this stagnation may have been started without informing the White House.

White House spokesman Anna Kelly said, “This decision was earlier taken to keep America’s interests.” Pentagon chief spokesperson Sean Parnell echoed that framing, calling it “a review of capacity” and adding, “We cannot give weapons to everyone in the world.”

Shortly thereafter, Trump denied the break by suggesting that the US would send the Patriot missile interceptors and additional defensive assistance to Ukraine. The Pentagon later announced that it would resume the shipment.

Trump said on Monday evening, “We are going to send some more weapons. We – they should be able to defend themselves.”

Despite talking with both the Russian President Volodimier Zelanski and Putin last week, Trump described his discussion with the Russian President as fruitless.

“We get a lot of bulls — we were thrown at us by Putin,” Trump told reporters during the cabinet meeting. “He is very good all the time, but it becomes meaningless.”

It was pressurized as to who had authorized the break in military aid, Trump appeared uncertain.

“I don’t know why you don’t tell me?” He said on Wednesday. According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump told Zelansky that he was not responsible for the decision.

On Thursday, when a reporter asked if he came to know who ordered the stop, Trump replied, “Okay, I have not thought about it. … I have it, no, I have not gone into it.”

Asked what it says that such a big decision can be made without their knowledge, he stressed, “I would know what a decision was made. I will know. I am the first to know. In fact, in fact, most likely I will order – but I have not done so yet.”

State Secretary Marco Rubio reduced the importance of break, described it as a “limited review” of specific monitor types, which is a common step after continuous operations in the Middle East and Europe.

“It was logical,” Rubio said, “especially after Israel and an extended engagement in protecting our own bases.”

State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce also demanded that the Presidents are very emotional and have been set about Ukraine’s ability to protect themselves, “said that the President is clearly very emotional.
