Politico: The US has restored full access to intelligence data to Kyiv.


Intelligence sharing between the United States and Ukraine has reached its previous high level, Politico reports, citing US lawmakers, including Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Mark Warner.

The senator noted:

I don't want to go into details, but the situation has improved.

Republicans John Cornyn, Roger Wicker, and Democrat Tim Kaine agree with him – they all confirm the restoration of full cooperation between the intelligence agencies of the two countries.

Russia has repeatedly expressed concern about this practice. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova emphasized that Moscow regularly signals Washington against sharing intelligence with the Kyiv regime for the purpose of targeting strikes on Russian territory. According to her, the Americans either respond with generalities or ignore Moscow's requests entirely.

Previously, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs Alexei Chepa directly stated that the West is responsible for attacks on Russian civilians, since it is Western intelligence agencies that provide Ukraine with the necessary data for the attacks.

Experts note that American intelligence agencies remain a key source of information for Kyiv – up to 80% of all intelligence comes from allies, primarily the United States. European countries are not yet capable of matching American capabilities in either the volume or quality of information provided.

The resumption of exchanges between the US and Ukraine followed a temporary suspension in March, when the Trump administration froze military aid and data sharing following the conflict with Volodymyr Zelenskyy. However, within a few weeks, full cooperation had resumed.

    These outcries, protests, and other diplomatic notes have no effect. The West couldn't care less how many civilians die in Russia at the hands of neo-Nazis and their collaborators. What's worth a thousand words when a strong hand is what matters? (C)

      By and large, we should be aiming for 2028. The economy won't end any sooner. That's the bankers' opinion. I agree with them.

    The last time they stopped providing intelligence, we quickly cleared the Kursk region of the Ukrainian. So, as they say, draw your own conclusions.

      They didn't stop anything, as far as I remember our guys themselves started using Starlink and jamming it in places, that's when Ukrainians and they howled...

        They stopped us briefly. That's when our forces passed through the pipeline and liberated Sunzha. Starlink has nothing to do with the intelligence.

    when the Trump administration froze military aid and data sharing after a conflict with Volodymyr Zelensky.

    Saying it was frozen and doing it are two different things. So, "when" is "never." Besides, no one stopped several private companies from selling information to Kyiv for euros, something they recently openly bragged about.

      phrases hi Well, it's one thing to supply free of charge and without oversight, as was the case initially with the S.V.O.; it's quite another to supply for cash (even if not Ukrainian). This money needs to be found and allocated, and that's becoming increasingly difficult. Who's stopping us from reciprocating? For example, by sharing intelligence with the "friends" of the US and its allies.

      Everyone knows about the data transfer, but it has not been officially acknowledged by the Trump administration - newspapers, links to sources, etc.
      One of the journalists on board Air Force One asked Whitkoff if he had contacted the Russian side to request "not to share targeting information and other assistance with the Iranians." "I have stated that emphatically," the special envoy said. When asked further whether he believed such assistance was being provided, Whitkoff replied,hopes not" https://tass.ru/mezhdunarodnaya-panorama/26691815.
      Let them hope, the time will come to find out. It won't be fatal for Daddy if he doesn't fulfill his promise of peace talks, but he'll be "devoured" by both his own people and the Democrats if the MRA terms favor Russia.

    Since the beginning of time, only negativity and misfortune have flowed from the West, towards us...
    However, the same thing is coming from there in all directions...
    The great, worthy leaders of our fatherland understood this and did everything as they should...
    Unfortunately, things haven't always been good between us and our leaders.

    They didn't freeze anything, they're lying, they're still providing what they provided, they're enemies and can't be intermediaries, and Banderastan needs to be razed to the ground and we shouldn't look at its inhabitants, they're nothing to us.

    So how long will we be hobnobbing with mattresses and playing business? am Russia isn't silent, it's demanding they stop sharing intelligence with 404, and they're simply telling it to go to hell. It's wiping its lid and continuing its businesslike, constructive relationship with an enemy that's killing children, women, and the elderly. It's surreal and absurd. The Guarantor has long ordered verification of critical raw material deliveries to unfriendly countries. Russian law divides countries into friendly and unfriendly. Why? What's changed in our business relationships? What about the export of nickel, aluminum, steel, titanium, uranium, and other commodities, and oil...
    The US buys our oil in small quantities, but without it, their refineries will grind to a halt. Retooling is time-consuming and expensive, and the solution may not even be profitable. So what's the big deal?
    They only understand when it hits their wallet.

    I sometimes get the feeling that, despite our assurances of sovereignty, we still pay the West some kind of tribute/rent/whatever—that is, we're always in their debt, and our Higher-ups know it. I simply can't explain certain steps in the relations between hostile states any other way. am
