What will Ukraine ask in Saudi Arabia

Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski already has the support of his EU allies to obtain such an armistice with Russia, in which both camps are committed that they will no longer attack the enemy arregarded using long -range weapons, respectively rockets, drones or sliding bombs. Zelenski's request occurs after the Ukrainian army was limited to use such weapons following the suspension of US military aid, including the transfer of information that allowed coordination of Russian targets.

« We have a proposal of an armistice in the air and an armistice at sea, as they are the most easy to put into practice and supervise and it is possible to start with them, » he motivated the Ukrainian manager, who asked the AFP anonymity.

The decision of US President Donald Trump to stop military aid and information transfers for Ukraine followed the verbal altercation he had at the White House with the Ukrainian President, who reproached him for the lack of peace and warned that if he does not conclude an agreement with Russia, he will not be able to count on the USA Security to accept a cessation of fire, guarantees that Trump believes should be offered by European countries, not by the US.

Asked about the chances of Kiev to get the resumption of US military aid, the Ukrainian manager interviewed by AFP has refrained from speculating. « We do not know the conditions for the resumption of aid, as Americans cannot formulate clearly what they want in return, » he said.

'But it is essential to know how long it will. If it will take a long time, this would give the Russians a significant advantage, « said the Ukrainian official, who confirmed that the freezing of information by the US already affects the ability of the Ukrainian army to hit the Russian territory and could also weaken Ukrainian troops occupying a portion of territory in the Russian province of Kursk. recover this territory.

In contrast, the suspension of the deliveries of weapons and American ammunition does not have any influence on the ability to fight the Ukrainian army, as it has been stocks, but if this suspension will last, it will be felt at some point, explains the same Ukrainian official, which confirms that the most stringent problem for Kiev is not to be able to hit the USA. the back of the front and in the depth of the Russian territory.

In fact, Russian officials have accused the West several times, especially the US, of involvement in the Russian-Ukrainian war not only by delivering weapons and ammunition to Ukraine, but also by supporting it with information about the Russian targets obtained with the help of satellites, recognition drones and spy aircraft.
