The renewed US pressure on Ukraine comes right as Russia has suffered one of their worst months on the front in a long time.

The last few months has seen Ukraine advance in the east and south. That's led to near zero (maybe even negative) net gains by Russia at the cost of tens of thousands of casualties.

Russian commentators were referring to their attacks in Donetsk as a 'catastrophe' and lamenting that they would 'drown in blood' before reaching the Dnipro river.

That was the sentiment last week. That's the backdrop of these recent US actions that come at an ideal time for Russia as they were feeling more military pressure than they had in some time.
