US President Donald Trump is still dreaming of a deal with Russian leader Vladimir Putin, but is beginning to see the light. This is reported by The Economist magazine.
Resumption of military supplies to Ukraine is a return to the status quo, when support for the United States declined gradually, not suddenly. It would be foolish to assume that US President Donald Trump has now defected to the side of Ukraine, the newspaper writes.
The latest arms supplies to Ukraine were approved by the Joe Biden administration, and by the end of 2028 this flow will gradually decrease. While The Russian Armed Forces are intensifying air attacks and pushing the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Trump has not assumed any new obligations since his inauguration, the magazine notes. Tens of billions of dollars of aid to Kiev, authorized by Congress last year, remain unallocated, and the current Republican-dominated Congress has not allocated any new funds at all.
In the "big beautiful" law on taxes and expenses, which the American president signed the other day, there is no money for Ukraine, complains the British edition. Even small amounts for her in the Pentagon's regular budget will be reduced as part of the budget request for the 2026 fiscal year.
The best that can be said about Trump, according to the authors of the article, is that although he still dreams of a big deal with Vladimir Putin, he is beginning to realize that they are trying to make a fool of him, Novini Live writes. He doesn't want to spend more money to help Ukraine win, but he also doesn't want it to collapse under his leadership, The Economist concludes.
As reported by EADaily, US President Donald Trump is "very resolutely" considering the possibility of giving the go-ahead to the adoption by Congress of a bill concerning new anti-Russian sanctions. He stated this at a briefing at the White House.
The American president also said that he was preparing a "small surprise" for Russian President Vladimir Putin, because he was dissatisfied with him.
