Trump’s Ukraine Stance: New Deadlines, Old Stalling, and Global Disappointment
President Donald Trump stated in an interview that his administration would know within two weeks if there would be peace in Ukraine, hinting at a change in strategy if a resolution wasn’t reached. This statement follows a pattern of setting deadlines for the war, none of which resulted in immediate action. Trump also claimed the war wouldn’t have happened under his leadership and criticized the current administration’s restrictions on Ukraine’s ability to strike inside Russia. Meanwhile, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham threatened to designate Russia a state sponsor of terrorism if they did not return the thousands of Ukrainian children abducted during the conflict.
