Fresh Problem | Trump Casts Doubt on Ukraine’s Survival, Suggests Resistance Against Russia May Be Futile

 

 

In a shocking new statement, US President Donald Trump has suggested that Ukraine may still fall to Russia, even if the United States continues to support Kyiv’s defense efforts. His remarks come amid growing tensions between Washington and Ukraine, as Trump remains steadfast in his controversial decision to pause military aid and intelligence sharing.

 

Speaking on Fox News’ *Sunday Morning Futures*, Trump was confronted with a warning from Polish President Andrzej Duda that Ukraine “will not survive” without American support. Instead of offering reassurances, Trump bluntly responded, *“Well, it may not survive anyway.”*

 

The US president’s comments are likely to further strain relations with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, whose recent White House meeting with Trump reportedly ended in disaster. Trump is pushing Kyiv to negotiate a ceasefire with Russia, using the suspension of military aid as leverage—a move critics say plays directly into Moscow’s hands.

 

Trump has made it clear that even if Ukraine signs a minerals deal with the US, it will not be enough to restore military support unless Zelenskyy changes his stance on peace talks. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian leader is set to meet Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, while US and Ukrainian officials prepare for critical talks in Washington.

 

  • With Ukraine’s fate hanging in the balance, Trump’s latest remarks have sparked global outrage, with allies fearing that his hardline stance could embolden Russia and accelerate Kyiv’s downfall.
