DONALD Trump has reportedly paused all US military aid to Ukraine for the foreseeable future.
Trump’s major move comes just days after he and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky were seen having a huge bust up inside the Oval Office over the devastating war in Ukraine.

The US has now made the decision to pause all military aid to Ukraine until Trump believes the Ukrainians show they are committed to having fair peace talks, a senior Trump administration official told Fox News.
The official said: “This is not permanent termination of aid, it’s a pause.”
It comes just hours after the US President blasted Zelensky in a Truth Social post as he said “this guy doesn’t want there to be peace”.
Trump was responding to a quote from the Ukrainian leader in which he said an end to the conflict with Russia is still “very, very far away”.
The Republican – who became embroiled in a heated bust up with Zelensky in the Oval Office last week – described his quotes as the “worst statement that could have been made”.
His post continued: “America will not put up with it for much longer!
“It is what I was saying, this guy doesn’t want there to be peace as long as he has America’s backing and, Europe, in the meeting they had with Zelensky, stated flatly that they cannot do the job without the US.
“Probably not a great statement to have been made in terms of a show of strength against Russia.
“What are they thinking?”
Trump’s right-hand man in the White House Elon Musk also responded to the post as he said: “Zelensky wants a forever war, a never-ending graft meat grinder.”
The Tesla chief followed it up by simply saying: “This is evil.”
