Restricting information could have dire security consequences, especially for Ukraine as it tries to repel a Russian invasion.

“It was American intelligence that helped convince many NATO countries that Putin was determined to invade Ukraine. Some countries did not believe that Russia had the ability to mount a successful military campaign,” the source said.

Cursing intelligence during a possible future Trump administration was a topic of discussion, according to officials and a senior U.S. official. at the NATO summit this week. 

Reduced US intelligence sharing could reduce Europe's ability to resist a Russian invasion if President Vladimir Putin decides to expand military operations on the continent beyond Ukraine.
