"Attempts were unsuccessful": Trump is disappointed by the inability to end the war in Ukraine, media

Share: US President Donald Trump is frustrated by his own inability to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. Especially since the White House has already tried to put pressure on both Kyiv and Moscow. Trump did not realize how obsessed Russian President Vladimir Putin is with destroying Ukraine's independence, writes The Atlantic.

The American president thought that he would be able to conclude an agreement with the help of a simple agreement that would recognize the territorial gains of the Russian Federation and correspond to its economic interests. But Trump did not understand that Putin could not agree to anything less than the complete taming of Ukraine.

"Recently, President Trump tried to change the dynamics: he told Putin that he could provide Ukraine with long-range Tomahawk missiles, and he tried to convince Volodymyr Zelensky to cede territory, but both attempts were unsuccessful," the article says. Unnamed sources in the Trump administration told reporters that a settlement of the Russian-Ukrainian war could be very close, but only if the parties were prudent.

"They seem to consider the main conflict to be simple and amenable to compromise: Russia wants to get the rest of the territory it does not control in Donbas; Ukraine wants reliable security guarantees. But in reality, the problem is much more complex and difficult," the authors of the article emphasized. We will remind, on November 11, the mass media reported that the Trump administration wants to weaken the UN resolution regarding the Russian occupation of Ukraine.
