8.48 a.m .: According to Selenskyj, the USA has not informed Ukraine about the US data leak
The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy learned from the media about the US documents circulating on the Internet, which also contain sensitive information about the war in Ukraine. This emerges from an interview that Zelenskyj gave to the American newspaper “Washington Post”.
“I was not informed in advance from the White House or the Pentagon,” he said. “We didn’t have that information, and neither did I personally.” This is clearly a bad thing, according to Zelenskyj. The leaked secret service documents contained, among other things, information on arms deliveries, assessments of the war and details of alleged US spying against partners.
