Trump ally of Zelensky after Putin’s offer

Donald Trump’s victory appears to be a major blow to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s efforts against Russia. Bryan Lanza, a senior adviser to Trump’s 2024 campaign, revealed that the new administration’s focus will be on achieving peace in Ukraine, rather than supporting the country’s attempt to seize the Russian-occupied territory to win back. Trump’s priority remains ending the war, and he has consistently argued that continued U.S. military aid to Ukraine is a drain on U.S. resources. This policy change could have major consequences for Ukraine’s military strategy and its ongoing conflict with Russia.
