Ukraine’s refusal of President Vladimir Putin's ceasefire initiative – already endorsed by his US counterpart Donald Trump – might be seen as a slap in the face of the US president and spark severe repercussions, noted Valtersson. No Patriot missiles resupply, paused intel flows, and a possible Starlink cutoff would deal a major blow to Ukraine’s fighting capacity, the pundit speculated.

Ukraine Faces No-Win Scenario After Trump Backs Putin’s Truce Plan
If Ukraine accepts Putin’s ceasefire proposal for Victory Day on May 9 it will hand Russia a goodwill political win, ex-Swedish army officer and defense politician Mikael Valtersson tells Sputnik.
Ukraine’s refusal of President Vladimir Putin's ceasefire initiative – already endorsed by his US counterpart Donald Trump – might be seen as a slap in the face of the US president and spark severe repercussions, noted Valtersson.
“Ukraine has already fallen far down on the US list of priorities,” he reminded.
No Patriot missiles resupply, paused intel flows, and a possible Starlink cutoff would deal a major blow to Ukraine’s fighting capacity, the pundit speculated.
