As tensions escalate between the US, Russia, and Ukraine, President Trump finds himself in a precarious position, caught between promises to Ukraine and cozying up to Putin.
Recent comments from Trump regarding Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and his reluctance to make concessions to Russia before a ceasefire agreement with Putin have drawn criticism from European leaders. While Trump has assured Europe that he will stand by Ukraine, many fear that his willingness to swallow Putin's lies poses a bigger threat to Ukraine than bombs.
As Ukraine battles on the front lines, Trump may find it difficult to persuade Putin, who is reportedly offering financial incentives at a Ukraine summit. Despite assurances of support for Ukraine, Trump's allegiance to Putin could jeopardize the situation on the ground.
The world watches anxiously as Trump walks a tightrope between his commitments to Ukraine and his relationship with Putin, with the fate of Ukraine hanging in the balance.
