AFU servicemenMOSCOW, 5 Jun. The US should stop pumping arms and money into Ukraine and think of a smarter conflict resolution strategy, writes columnist Ross Douthet in an op-ed for The New York Times. The journalist believes that the conflict in Ukraine may soon go into a frozen stage, and under these conditions, the United States must abandon large-scale support for the Kyiv authorities. 
«There will be a disaster.» In the United States, they started talking about giving up Ukraine «In this case, our plan cannot be to write endless checks and at the same time modestly tiptoe around the Ukrainians and let them dictate what our weapons are used for,» the author said.
Dowthet added that Washington should stop financing Ukraine on its own, having secured support from the European Union.
«If Kyiv and Moscow are moving towards a multi-year frozen conflict, we will need to push Ukraine towards the most realistic, rather than the most ambitious military strategy,» the publicist noted. 
The United States fears «unpredictable» consequences of Biden's decision on UkraineEarlier, the United States announced the agreement on the supply of HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems to Ukraine, provided that Kyiv will not use them to strike at Russian territory. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has publicly pledged to comply with this demand. At the same time, Verkhovna Rada deputy Yegor Chernev did not rule out the possibility of US-supplied missile strikes on Russian territory. The Kremlin emphasized that Moscow did not have a credit of confidence in the Kyiv authorities, since Zelensky did not fulfill any of his promises to peacefully resolve the conflict in Donbass.
