The US decision to suspend delivery of ammunition and other equipment to Kyiv is a “serious setback” towards achieving peace, the Taoiseach has said.

The White House decision to “review” its assistance comes after a row between Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US president Donald Trump in the Oval Office last Friday.
