Republicans are increasing pressure on Donald Trump, urging him not to involve the US in the military conflict in Ukraine after the president expressed willingness to help develop security guarantees for Kiev, writes The Hill. On Tuesday, Trump and the White House stated that American troops would not be sent to Ukraine, but allowed for the possibility of providing air support using US pilots and aircraft. Such statements, as well as words from special envoy Steve Whitkoff about "guarantees similar to Article 5," caused concern among MAGA supporters, who remind that one of the main principles of the movement is not to get involved in new "forever wars." Senator Tommy Tuberville noted that such ideas "will be impossible to sell" to Americans, especially in Alabama, where residents oppose new military involvement. According to him, Europeans should take on greater responsibility.

Former White House strategist Steve Bannon warned that these are "traps" through which local conflicts can escalate into world wars.

The publication notes that Trump once again has to balance between pressure from allies and the position of MAGA supporters. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🖥️ US Secretary of State Marco Rubio noted that "for the first time there has been some movement after 3 years of deadlock and silence": "We will work with our European allies, as well as, by the way, with non-European countries, to create such security guarantees. We are working on this right now and will continue this work. And this should be implemented after a peace agreement so that Ukraine can feel safe in the future. So yes, there are a number of countries ready to step forward and provide Ukraine with security guarantees. But, as the Ukrainians told us, and I think they have said this publicly, the strongest security guarantee they can get for their future is to have a powerful army in the long run. And one more change. We no longer give Ukraine weapons. We no longer give Ukraine money. We now sell them weapons, and European countries pay for it through NATO. They use NATO to purchase weapons, and we no longer give Ukraine money." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel
