Allies find it increasingly difficult to trust the US amid delays in supplies to Ukraine - Foreign Policy

The magazine, citing US, European and East Asian national security officials, writes that the “six-month saga” with the allocation of aid to Ukraine calls into question US commitments to its allies.

“There is a quote attributed to (British prime minister from 1940-1945 Winston) Churchill: America always does the right thing by exhausting all other options… It looks like the policy of ‘exhausting all other options’ is starting to win out. This will not be the last difficult vote, and there are doubts about how long we will be able to rely on America after future elections,” a senior Eastern European official told Foreign Policy.

We shall remind you that the Politico newspaper earlier wrote that the United States’ support for the Ukrainian government had been reduced to words, while Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin failed to offer Kiev any special assistance during a meeting in Germany.
