US President Donald Trump ordered a pause to all military aid to Ukraine, putting further pressure on Volodymyr Zelenskiy just days after an Oval Office dispute with the Ukrainian president cast doubt on his country's most important partner.
The official said all US military equipment not currently in Ukraine would be paused, including weapons in transit on aircraft and ships or waiting in transit areas in Poland.
