Though doubt looms over Trump’s moves in the coming months, his warm relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his September claim that Ukraine was “demolished” and its people “dead” have left Kyiv worried.

In his victory speech in Florida, Republican party leader Trump did not directly mention the war in Ukraine but reminded the cheering crowd that the U.S. saw “no wars” during his first presidential term from 2017 to 2021 before Joe Biden, the Democratic party’s outgoing president, succeeded him.

    The EU doesn’t have a choice.

    They can fight this war in Ukraine or in Poland, it is cheaper to aid Ukraine.

      No one is stupid enough to fight NATO, even without US. Yeah, far from ideal, but US isn’t NATO, they’re biggest figure but quit acting like US is some sort of world saviour… Yknow those were just movies, yeah?

        The Vatniks are absolutely stupid enough to try.

        Already the vatniks claim they are fighting NATO so if they win then that means they beat NATO and can do it again.
