US congressmen and experts questioned the Trump administration's decision to suspend the supply of some anti-aircraft weapons to Ukraine, believing that this move could delay the end of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. They refuted the White House's statement that “America's arms stocks are in a hurry.” Many sources said that the weapons currently needed by Ukraine are not urgently needed in other regions, so there is no need to immediately stop deliveries of these weapons. Connecticut Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal said, “We should definitely replenish our inventory, but the solution should be to speed up production rather than cut supplies to Ukraine.” A European official said that a NATO ally has urged the US Department of Defense to reconsider the decision. John Herbst, director of the Atlantic Council's Eurasian Center, said that the US move contradicts a series of tough actions taken by Trump and his team last week. He pointed out that during the NATO summit, countries agreed to raise defense-related spending to 5% of GDP.
