20. Friendly foreign intelligence agencies (The Five Eyes) were said

to have become more circumspect in providing certain intel to the US after Trump had Lavrov, et al in the Oval.

Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States comprise the Five Eyes. These countries are parties to the multilateral UKUSA Agreement, a treaty for joint cooperation in signals intelligence. I guess there were more worried about TFG than breaking the treaty.

That little bit of sown distrust is a way to isolate a nation from its friends. And that isolation makes it easier to "take down" that nation. The Undeclared War, a fictional series on Peacock, used that as a thread in the plot.
