Republican Senator Rubio: the US can stop supporting Europe in the Ukrainian conflict

The United States could stop assisting Europe in the Ukrainian conflict and focus on the Taiwan issue. Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio said this as he commented on French President Emmanuel Macron's statements on Taiwan. "If Macron speaks for all of Europe and their position is that if we have to choose sides between the United States and China on the Taiwan issue, perhaps we should also choose sides," Rubio said in a video posted on social media. "It must be said that we will focus on Taiwan and the Chinese threat, and you in the EU deal with Ukraine and Europe". Macron, in an interview with reporters after his visit to China, said that Europe should reduce its dependence on United and avoid getting involved in a conflict between Washington and Beijing over Taiwan.

What is inside the secret American documents about the war in Ukraine revealed on the internet? The hundred documents (half of which have been viewed by some American newspapers) appear authentic, although at some point at least one of them has been modified from the original. They appear to be from a dossier compiled by the Pentagon Chief of Staff using reports from various intelligence agencies, including the CIA. Most of the information follows Washington's public statements about the war, but there is a greater level of detail. The leaks confirm the very high level of American involvement in providing daily data on Russian targets to be hit, demonstrating how the US has massively penetrated Moscow's intelligence and passed the plans to Kiev (one of the documents discusses how the state Major Russo aims to counter the vulnerabilities of the different types of tanks supplied by NATO countries; in another, the date of a raid against specific depots of drones and other weapons is announced.
