US satellite images: Ukraine hits a heavy setback by Trump!
The situation in Ukraine continues to escalate dramatically: The US technology group Maxar has blocked access to satellite scope for Ukraine, under pressure from the White House. This decision concerns both the accounts of the Ukrainian government and private access. A serious diplomatic scandal between US President Donald Trump and the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj, in which the stop of secret service information to Kiev was also decided. These developments were confirmed by users of the military blog "Militarnyj", which remained anonymous and reported on the loss of this valuable source of information, which is of crucial importance for the Ukrainian military, especially with regard to the movements of Russian troops.
The withdrawal of US support is perceived by the Ukrainians as particularly painful. Despite the setbacks, Trump's verbal attacks on Selenskyj paradoxically seem to strengthen its popularity in Ukraine. In a survey, trust in the Ukrainian president rose ten percentage points after Trump called him a "dictator" and blamed for the Russian aggressions, as reported the crown . The survey shows that the Ukrainians don't understand Trump's rhetoric as a personal attack, but as an attack on the entire nation.
Trump and Putin's alliance
In the middle of these tensions, there are also considerations about possible negotiations between Trump and Putin, where there are crucial questions about the territorial integrity of Ukraine. According to The conversation could lead to such deals that the Ukraine has to cede 20% of its territory, while Trump too demands that Ukraine are rewarding the United States for military support with its mineral resources. This is reminiscent of the historic Munich Agreement of 1938, in which the powers made decisions at the expense of a smaller country, while the states concerned did not sit at the negotiating table.

While Trump is praising his “good relationships” with Putin and is guilty of a more aggressive foreign policy towards Ukraine, concern is growing that there are further loss of territory. The underlying power shifts and the branched pressure would significantly endanger the stability in the region and have a lasting impact on geopolitical conditions.
