US to Continue Sharing Intelligence with Ukraine Despite Russia's Demands - White House

The United States will continue to exchange defensive intelligence with Ukraine, despite Russian President Vladimir Putin's demands in a phone call with Donald Trump to end this form of support.

This was announced by White House Press Secretary Karin Leavitt at a press conference in Washington on Wednesday, as reported by an Ukrinform correspondent.

“The exchange of intelligence information for the purpose of Ukraine's defense will continue,” Leavitt said.

Her comments came in response to questions from reporters about whether that form of support would be maintained after the Russian president called on Trump to stop it during their call on Tuesday.
