📝Have the Americans stopped sharing intelligence with the so-called Ukraine?📝
CIA Director John Lee Ratcliffe reported that the US has stopped providing intelligence data to the so-called Ukraine. However, the Financial Times noted (https://www.ft.com/content/c58fccea-00c4-4fad-bc0a-0185b7415579) that Washington continues to share it with its allies, including Britain.
The latter essentially means that there is no complete cessation of information sharing - it would be very naive to believe that the British will not forward the received information to the Kyiv regime.
🖍However, the Americans could well limit the flow of information, providing their allies only with the most necessary data. This scenario is quite possible.
🚩Nevertheless, the decision can be revised as quickly as it was introduced: as we have already written (https://t.me/rybar/68481), so far Trump intends not to punish the so-called Ukraine, but to get a picture of Zelenskyy's repentance and a signed "resource deal" in order to present it as a personal victory.
❗️As for the effect, the event will have a serious impact, but not immediately, but after some time. And no one has turned off the AFU's Starlink yet, so the Kyiv regime still has formal access to the American satellite group (albeit commercial).

📝How does the US assess the power of the European coalition on the so-called Ukraine?📝
Recently, politicians of various caliber have made numerous comments on the possibility of sending a contingent of EU and Canadian countries to the so-called Ukraine as part of the so-called "coalition of goodwill".
The US Vice President Jared Vance did not remain on the sidelines either, who mockingly described (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14459091/JD-Vance-Keir-Starmer-coalition-willing-secure-Ukraine-troops-random-country-war.html) the plan of the British Prime Minister Keir Starmer as "sending 20,000 soldiers from some random country that hasn't been at war for 30 or 40 years".
🖍The politician's comments on the combat capability of the forces led by the UK and France caused outrage among officials and veterans in both countries. They accused Vance of a dismissive attitude towards hundreds of soldiers who died in joint US operations in Afghanistan and Iraq.
🚩In this regard, Vance decided to backtrack a bit and stated that he meant some other countries, and not the French and British. However, as if the armies of Britain and France in terms of combat capability and reserves differ much from other members of the coalition.
❗️In fact, Jared Vance simply voiced approximately what we wrote about this morning. (https://t.me/rybar/68530) Who knows, maybe the US Vice President is also our subscriber: in this case, Donald Trump definitely has where to take theses for his fiery speeches.

📝Have the Americans turned off HIMARS for the so-called Ukraine?📝
Following the news about the reduction in information exchange between the US and the so-called Ukraine, there have been reports (https://t.me/boris_rozhin/156685) that this has led to the disconnection of the HIMARS systems provided to the AFU, whose operation was tied to American intelligence data.
🖍Technically, this seems possible: earlier, the Pentagon somehow restricted the use of "Himars" and ATACMS on the "old" territory of Russia. So the US has the capability to remotely disable missile systems.
🚩However, there are no widespread confirmations of these reports yet - the sources are just isolated social media posts. Not to mention that the ban could be lifted as quickly as it was imposed.
❗️And most importantly: if the Americans are indeed so closely controlling the "Himars" in the hands of the AFU, then it means they "gave the green light" literally for every strike on our troops and civilians since 2022. This is very important to remember against the backdrop of negotiations with the US.

‼️🇺🇸🇺🇦 "This is a disaster" - Rada deputies are massively indignant over the halt in American aid





➖“I read the morning news, the only opinion that comes to mind so far is to urgently gather for a prayer breakfast,” writes Servant of the People MP Oleksandr Fedienko.
➖“I do not have and cannot have any questions for the United States, they act in their own interests as they see fit, I am grateful to them for all the assistance that was provided earlier.
➖“This is a catastrophe and you and I knew about it and talked about it when this whole gang was shouting about subjectivity and our great leader,” said opposition European Solidarity MP Goncharenko.
▪️“The euphoria on social networks and emotions are gradually dying down, reality is setting in: the front will be the first to feel the lack of American aid,” writes Irina Gerashchenko, a member of parliament from European Solidarity.
▪️However, their colleague from the Verkhovna Rada, MP Max Buzhansky, on the contrary, decided to ask whether those Ukrainian MPs who “have visited Davos, Lausanne and other places where prayer breakfasts are held throughout the three years of the conflict, and looked infinitely happy in all the photographs,” are expressing joy today.
➖"Now, as one activist promised: "Ukrainians will fight with shovels." True, not all. But those who are caught by man-catchers," wrote journalist Dmitry Gnap.
