Trump mulls intelligence-sharing with Ukraine
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said recently that Kyiv had received no intelligence from partners on a Russian missile attack.
President Donald Trump is reportedly considering whether to continue sharing intelligence with Ukraine, despite his initial downplaying of the matter. The White House is actively discussing the issue, with some officials advocating for an end to intelligence sharing to aid in the resolution of Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine.
CIA Director John Ratcliffe, however, is reportedly opposed to such an action. Trump, according to one administration official, is reportedly furious, suggesting that he could order the cessation of intelligence sharing, particularly for targets inside Russia. Last year, Trump briefly halted intelligence sharing with Ukraine following a tense Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who alleged that Kyiv had not received intelligence from partners regarding a Russian missile attack.
