[U.S. Threatens to Cut Off Weapon Supplies to Ukraine, Potential Major Turning Point in Russia-Ukraine Situation] According to a report by Jinse Finance on October 13, European officials recently stated that the United States is threatening to halt the mechanism for supplying weapons to Ukraine as a means to pressure Ukraine to stop its deep strikes on Russian energy infrastructure. Over the past weekend, some European officials received calls from the U.S., where the U.S. lobbied relevant European countries and pressured Ukraine in an attempt to end Ukraine's attacks on Russian refineries. The messages conveyed by the U.S. included threats to cease intelligence sharing and to cut off the "Ukraine Priority Needs List" mechanism. This mechanism is funded by some NATO European member states to purchase weapons from the U.S. to aid Ukraine, while the U.S. itself does not contribute financially to this mechanism. However, regarding the above information, the White House has declined to comment. (CCTV)
