After Donald Trump blasts Zelenskyy at the Oval Office, U.S. pulls plug on Ukraine energy aid as State Department abruptly ends support for critical grid restoration efforts

The US government has halted its support for Ukraine's energy infrastructure, including a USAID initiative vital for the power grid recovery. USAID's presence in Ukraine is significantly reduced, with only eight personnel remaining. Another program aimed at reforming Ukraine's financial sector is also ending, following a heated exchange between President Trump and Zelenskyy.
