Russia vs Ukraine: US suspends efforts to counter Russian sabotage
The United States’ national security agencies have halted work on a coordinated effort to counter Russian sabotage, disinformation and cyberattacks, easing pressure on Moscow as President Donald Trump’s Administration pushes Russia to end its war in Ukraine.
The immediate past President Joe Biden last year ordered his national security team to establish working groups to monitor the issue following warnings from the US intelligence that Russia was escalating a shadow war against Western nations.
The plan was reportedly led by the president’s National Security Council, NSC, and involved no fewer than seven national security agencies working with European allies to disrupt plots targeting Europe and the United States.
It was gathered that before President Donald Trump was inaugurated, his incoming administration was briefed by Biden officials about the efforts and urged to continue monitoring Russia’s hybrid warfare campaign.
However, since Trump took office on January 20, much of the work are said to have come to a standstill.
It was further learned that regular meetings between the National Security Council and European national security officials have gone unscheduled, and the NSC has also stopped formally coordinating efforts across US agencies, including with the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security and the State Department.
