📌 Journalists pointed out that Trump dodged a direct answer on whether Ukraine would be an equal participant in peace talks.
💬 “That’s an interesting question. I’ve said that this is not a good war to get involved in,” he stated.
Analysts suggest that Trump is effectively adopting Kremlin rhetoric, shifting responsibility for the war onto Ukraine, which is the victim of Russia’s invasion. ❗
📉 Moreover, Trump’s team once again emphasized that Ukraine will not be able to reclaim its territories and should not join NATO. This significantly weakens Kyiv’s negotiating position.
Former Swedish Prime Minister Carl Bildt compared the situation to the 1938 Munich Agreement, when major powers sought peace at the cost of other nations’ territories.
💬 “Many Europeans know how that movie ended,” he remarked.
🔺 Western politicians and experts are urging Ukraine and its partners to take decisive action to prevent history from repeating itself, where critical decisions were made behind an entire nation’s back.
