US Secretary of State Rubio rejected claims that intelligence sharing with Ukraine was stopped

According to reports in the US press, Rubio evaluated Zelenskiy's statements regarding intelligence sharing between the US and Ukraine in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, where he was to meet with representatives of Central Asian countries.

Rubio said, "I don't know where he got that information or why he said those things to the press. You should go back and ask him. There was no pause." he said.

Stating that Zelenskiy should focus on ending the Russia-Ukraine War, Rubio also made a statement about whether Ukraine received early warning before Russian ballistic missile attacks.

Rubio stated that he did not know what happened in the last attack, but a software problem occurred in the early warning system a few nights ago.

Stating that the US European Command (EUCOM) is examining the problem in question, Rubio stated that he could not comment further on the latest attack.

In his interview with NBC News on October 18, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy stated that the US's intelligence sharing with Ukraine was interrupted for a while but was later restored.

Zelenskiy, who also made evaluations about Ukraine-US relations in his interview with the Financial Times on October 15, stated that although his country stopped its attacks, they were deprived of the early warning notifications provided by the US against Russian attacks.

Zelenskiy pointed out that the Starlink service, the satellite technology owned by Elon Musk, the owner of SpaceX, was slowed down throughout the country and this disrupted operations at the front.

Stating that "trade between the USA and Russia is interesting", Zelenskiy stated that it was "dangerous" for the USA to cut off intelligence support to Ukraine and disrupt the Starlink service.
