Trump 'completely wrong' to restrict support for Ukraine, Italian minister tells BBC
- Italy's defence minister has said it is a "complete mistake, a major mistake" for the US to limit access to satellite systems and intelligence used by Ukraine to defend itself against Russian attacks.
- In a BBC interview, Guido Crosetto warned that any such move by US President Donald Trump's administration "makes absolutely no sense" and risked prolonging Russia's full-scale invasion rather than helping to bring peace.
- US officials have said Trump has not asked for the slowdown of internet speeds the US provides to Ukraine and which are vital for its war effort.
