Donald Trump bans UK from sharing any US military intelligence with Ukraine
The US has banned Britain from sharing intelligence from Washington with Ukraine, in the latest crackdown on withdrawing support from the war ravaged country
Reports have emerged that the US has prohibited the UK from sharing intelligence obtained from Washington with Ukraine.
Furthermore, it has been reported that an explicit directive has been issued to all British intelligence and military bodies, forbidding them from disseminating US-sourced intelligence, previously labelled "Rel UKR" – shorthand for Releasable to Ukraine.
The ban impacts key British institutions such as GCHQ, spy agencies, and the intelligence divisions of the Ministry of Defence.
Seems almost too good to be true. I doubt UK (or US) black ops rely on permission from anyone in recognisable positions or institutions.
Still, it shows how serious Trump is about ending this and if he he continues in this way then surely it will have an impact. There's all the satellite data sharing and Starlink coverage available as leverage. Trump holds many cards!
I can see this war morphing into something more sporadic and more like a counter-terrorism operation.
