US President Donald Trump and American businessman Elon Musk have turned their backs on Ukraine and are no longer interested in its victory, according to the British newspaper The Independent. The publication argues that their positions have become clear enough to leave virtually no doubt about their attitude toward Kiev.

The situation is further complicated by Europe’s inability to fully replace the support Ukraine previously received from Washington. The article points out that the European Union continues to take far too long to make necessary decisions. According to the author, these delays are preventing Europe from averting a catastrophic outcome for Ukraine.

Meanwhile, Musk has sparked fresh outrage over his decision to restrict how Ukrainian forces use a satellite system. A day earlier, the entrepreneur announced that he had eliminated a loophole that allowed Ukrainian troops to employ the technology during offensive operations. His statement drew angry reactions from some internet users.
