All points to Trump turning his back on Ukrainian conflict

It's a large blow to the country trying to counter Russia's expanding attacks.

=======================================================

Today the Pentagon announced that Ukrainian organization is over :

The United States has stopped the supply of arms parts to Ukraine as they fear that their own supplies have decreased besides much," officials informed on Tuesday. This is simply a failure for a country trying to defy Russia's expanding attacks .

A certain ammunition was previously promised Ukraine under Biden's regulation to support its defence during the ongoing over three years of war . The break reflects the president's fresh set of priorities Donald Trump and came after DOD officials examined US's current supplies and expressed concerns.

This means that Ukraine will NOT receive any more:

• PAC3 Patriot missile
• Artillery missiles 155 mm
• GMLRS rocket
• Stinger rockets, AIM-7 and Hellfire

Although the White home assures you that simply ‘puts American interests first’, This decision reveals that the United States has a serious problem with the production of certain weapons systems and their supply is critical or close to it.

Consider that the same happened to the Terminal advanced Altitude Area defence system, besides known as THAAD which was deployed in Israel. The United States presently produces about 50–60 missiles THAAD (captors) a year at $13 million per bullet. The number of production reflects the latest production rates of 2025 which have increased to meet national and global demand. Lockheed Martin, the main producer, had previously reported the production of as many as 8 rounds a month, which would be a maximum of 96 per year, but the newer and more widely cited estimates place the yearly production closer to 50–60 interceptors. I'll say it again... 50–60 a year. This production rate is significant, given the advanced cost and limited global bullet stocks THAAD .

During the 12-day war with Iran, the US utilized up 15–20% of its global arsenal THAAD supporting Israel, which highlights both the advanced operational request and the comparatively slow pace at which these interceptors can be supplemented. If the war continued for 2 more weeks, most likely the U.S. would have exhausted its supplies THAAD .

We had a akin deficiency in GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bombs that were dropped on Iran's atomic facilities on June 22. Although the exact number in the U.S. inventory has not been disclosed publicly, experts believe that the current US stock is likely to be little than 50 units. However, Boeing, in collaboration with the McAlester Army Ammunition Plant in Oklahoma, is presently building from 72 to 96 GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs (MOP) annually. This is based on a fresh expansion of production completed in mid-2024, which increased production from 2 bombs a period (24 per year) to at least six or possibly 8 bombs a month. Therefore, the fresh yearly production rate is estimated to be 72 to 96 units.

And then there are Patriot missiles. Lockheed Martin besides has this contract and is reported to produce 550 rockets a year. The Patriot rocket launcher can carry different number of missiles depending on the kind of rocket:
• PAC-2: Up to 4 rockets per launcher.
• PAC-3 CRI rockets: Up to 16 rockets per launcher.
• PAC-3 MSE rockets: Up to 12 rockets per launcher.

Usually, at least 2 Patriot missiles are fired on any impending threat specified as a rocket or drone. 2 days ago, Russia launched over 500 missiles and drones on Ukraine. If Ukraine inactive had moving Patriot missiles and a supply of missiles, this Russian attack would have exhausted the supplies of both the US and Ukraine.

Did anyone in Washington learn from the war in Ukraine? Do they now realize that the U.S. cannot match the Russians or the Chinese in the production of weapons utilized on the battlefield? I don't think so. Trump is inactive pounding his chest while insisting that America has the best army in the world. Here's the message, Donald: No, you don't!!!

Meanwhile, there is simply a spark of hope in Moscow that not all European leaders are crazy. Putin and Macron spoke on the telephone on 1 July and everything seemed to go well. Here's the reading of the Kremlin:

Both leaders held a detailed discussion on the situation in the mediate East in the context of the Iranian-Israeli confrontation and fresh US attacks on Iran's atomic facilities.

Putin and Macro underlined the peculiar work of Russia and France as permanent members of the UN safety Council for maintaining global peace and security, especially in the mediate East, and for maintaining the atomic non-proliferation regime. They stressed the importance of respecting Iran's legitimate right to make a peaceful atomic programme and proceed to fulfil its obligations under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of atomic Weapons, including cooperation with the IAEA.

Both leaders advocated the resolution of the Iranian atomic crisis — as well as another regional conflicts — by political and diplomatic means alone. They agreed to stay in touch, possibly coordinating positions.

erstwhile discussing the situation in Ukraine, Putin reiterated that the conflict was a direct consequence of Western politics, which for years ignored Russia's safety interests, supported anti-Russian footholds in Ukraine and encouraged the violation of the rights of the Russian-speaking population. He noted that the West inactive prolongs the war effort, providing Kiev with modern weapons.

With respect to the peace prospects, the Russian president confirmed Russia's fundamental position: all possible agreements must be comprehensive, long-term and address the root causes of the conflict, while reflecting fresh territorial realities.

Putin and Macron's conversation was substantive.

Putin did not give a single inch to the Russian terms of the negotiated end of the war. This was the first polite conversation between them since September 2022. Putin and Macro discussed their roles on the UN safety Council. On the basis of my brief experience there in April 2024, I can say without reservation that the typical of France is simply a full asshole. So the fact that Putin and Macron talk about how the UNSC can play a more constructive function may indicate that the French ambassador will be instructed to act and talk like a diplomat.

• What do you think Trump's reaction will be erstwhile he finds out Putin and Macro are talking?
• I say he'll be upset that he's no longer the only planet leader in Putin's life. But did you announcement what Putin said about Western responsibility?

He noted that the West inactive prolongs the war effort, providing Kiev with modern weapons.

Is it possible that the Pentagon's announcement that it no longer supplies "modern weapons" Ukraine, was it a signal to Putin that the US ended its function in Ukraine? Very interesting!?
