Russian Security Council Expert: US Betrayed Ukraine and Europe by Exiting Crisis

A Russian Security Council expert, Andrei Sušencov, told TASS that the US betrayed Ukraine and European allies by deciding to exit the Ukrainian crisis, framing Ukraine as a 'continental sword' against Russia. This rhetoric aligns with prior Kremlin accusations against the Biden administration, indicating a continued narrative shift as Washington reportedly disengages. The claim is unverified and reflects Russian state messaging, not confirmed US policy.
