According to Dr. Frank Umbach, the US has been providing Ukraine with satellite images again for several months. Trump's U-turn in military support for Ukraine is attributable to the fact that Trump has now realized the defeat of the Russian summer offensive against eastern Ukraine. “Never before have the losses been greater in relation to the territorial gains than now. Russia is currently facing massive recruitment problems,” Dr. Umbach told FOCUS Online.

Dr. Frank Umbach is Head of Research of the European Cluster for Climate, Energy and Resource Security (EUCERS) at the Center for Advanced Security, Strategic and Integration Studies (CASSIS)
