The US President has reportedly reached out to allies who are directly compromised by the leak
reveal that South Korea’s President, Yoon Suk Yeol, worried that Biden might personally pressure him to send hundreds of thousands of artillery shells to Ukraine, despite the country’s policy of not arming combatants in wartime. The government in Seoul has launched an investigation into how the US snooping of their president’s private conversations occurred.
Over the weekend, President Biden ordered a Department of Justice probe into the leak, which started with documents being published via Discord, an online platform mostly used by video gamers. Documents also appeared on, a web platform with a long record of publishing leaks and conspiracy theories, and other criminal activities.
The Biden Administration admits it is still coming to grips with the scale of the crisis. Officials have no idea who leaked the documents, and the investigation is beginning with a handful of top Biden lieutenants who saw the US intelligence findings relating to Ukraine, a presentation that occurred within the last two months.
Some of the documents also appear to have been altered prior to their publication, although the White House is refusing to confirm the authenticity of any of them, insisting that investigations remain at a very early stage.
