From the article: "But after President Donald Trump signed an executive order last week suspending almost all U.S. foreign aid programs for 90 days, the line went dark."
SNIP
"A congressional aide familiar with the matter said the order appeared to halt U.S. foreign military financing to Ukraine as well as direct bilateral economic assistance. The aide spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter."
Thank you President Trump, for giving American Taxpayers a much needed break and for putting AMERICA FIRST!
Deceptive headline (of course).
Nothing has technically been “cut” yet. But it is “frozen” until reviewed and somewhat audited.
Ukrainians are “asking why.”
Yes, Trump never once campaigned on “America First,” so it’s a complete mystery.
Siobhán O’Grady, Serhii Korolchuk; no bias by these ‘reporters’.
“Leave Ukraine alone!!”
😂
"Bilateral"??? As in THEY send aid to US? For every billion we send them, they send us ten bucks to get a burger at McDonalds? That type of "bilateral economic assistance"?
Like Chubby would say, “How Low Can You Go?”
Because the Ukrainians are crooked leftist grifters and our money is better spent on America’s problems here at home?
Because Zelensky and the Ukraine were behind the 1st impeachment of Trump?
Because the Ukraine is a dictatorship?
Because this is Europe’s evil crusade, not America’s?
Looks like a lot of fraudulent money transfers are coming to an end .
Put on some reggae mon , Jimmy Cliff
Washington Post via MSN”
Stopped reading at that point.
They could ask President 10% + to pony up some.
Nailed it!
Why? You were divided, post-soviet state, with a corrupt, self-serving governing class, with no real nationhood or sense of self. The West and their Azov puppets told you to hate your slav heritage, and hate your Russian language, culture and religion. They elevated a fake Banderist history as a cheap substitute.
After you were in the paddock, they used and enlisted your children for their own ends, which was to attack and attempt to divide Russia, and enrich their own cronies.
Sorry!
Someone should tell them it's OUR fornicating taxpayer money!

The headline says “cuts”, the article says “suspends”.
I guess the editor didn’t read the article.
For nearly three years, distressed Ukrainian troops, veterans and their families — including some soldiers on the brink of suicide — have relied on a U.S.-funded hotline to connect with trained psychological, legal and medical experts.
President Trump is well aware of all the corruption in Ukraine and most importantly Zelensky’s corruption.
The good? It has been mentioned the EU and private venture will have to rebuild Ukraine, not a penny from the US as it will be grifted off.
The old EU saying, “ when shaking hands with a Ukrainian, be sure to see how many fingers he stole”, getter truer day by day.
Question: Trump foreign aid cuts leave Ukrainians in limbo and asking why?
Answer: Because Crime Boss Joey isn’t around to blackmail anymore.
Any other stupid questions?
“Ukrainians are “asking why.”
Do an audit and tell us where all that USA money has gone. Russia has now crossed the Dnieper River, which is not good for what’s left of Ukraine. How much more lande are you going to give away?
