According to Olha Stefanisjyna, who is the Ukrainian Ambassador to the USA, Ukraine was warned about harming American economic interests after they attacked the Russian port of Novorossiysk on November 14th last year. The attack damaged a major oil terminal, leading to a halt in oil deliveries. The terminal is owned by the “Caspian Pipeline Consortium,” where the American company Chevron is one of the major shareholders.
Russia has bombed American companies in Ukraine on several occasions. Just a few days ago, a factory operated by the American company Mondelez was attacked (which is a bit ironic, as this is the company that owns Marabou and that we, friends of Ukraine, boycott because they refuse to leave Russia). This has happened several times before, for example, the company Flex, which manufactures electrical components for the civilian market, had its factory destroyed in August last year.
Do you think Trump has called Putin to warn him to stop attacking American interests in Ukraine? If so, those threats have been ineffective.

Based on the support in 2025 in economic terms, there is nothing to threaten with from the US side. France is said to provide the majority of intelligence, so they do not have any negotiating point there either.
Possibly stop the sale of American weapons, but then some heads are likely to roll as it is a lot of money involved.
Yes, that’s true.
Then there’s always the option to increase tariffs, Ukraine doesn’t export much to the USA, barely 1.5 billion USD, but they are probably dependent on all the exports they can get. Or that they put pressure on the EU in some way. When it comes to the EU, Ukraine is significantly more dependent on both imports and exports.
