U.S. President Donald Trump has privately expressed dissatisfaction in recent days over the publication of information about reductions in U.S. ammunition stockpiles, believing that it creates an impression of the country’s weakness. CNN reports this, citing its own sources, writes UNN.

According to the network, the issue of weapons stockpiles became one of the main topics at a government meeting in Camp David last week. Six people familiar with the meeting told CNN that Trump expressed irritation over media reports about low ammunition stockpiles.
At the same time, sources note that the president had known about possible problems with weapons stockpiles for several months, but was outraged that this information became public at such a critical moment.
He never blamed Pete. This is all about those who leak information
Trump ordered the sources of the leaks to be found
According to CNN, the president instructed the Justice Department to identify the individuals whom he calls "traitors" within the administration and whom he suspects of spreading confidential information.
The network’s sources also claim that the White House believes the leaks may have come from officials who oppose the war and are trying to persuade the president to withdraw the United States from the conflict.
