PALM BEACH — On Tuesday, US President Donald Trump resisted Ukraine’s demands to be left out of negotiations between the US and Russia in Saudi Arabia to settle the conflict in eastern Ukraine. Additionally, it appeared that he blamed Ukraine for a conflict that started only after Russia invaded that nation. “Today I heard, well, we weren’t invited,” Trump told reporters from his Mar-a-Lago club. You’ve spent three years there, then. Three years should have been the end of it. You ought not to have initiated it.
Trump was not amenable to Ukraine’s protests over being left out of the Saudi Arabian negotiations. He stated repeatedly that Kyiv should have been prepared to make concessions to Russia prior to its 2022 troop invasion of Ukraine, saying that Ukraine’s authorities should never have permitted the conflict to start.
The US-European transatlantic alliance may suffer as a result of such remarks and Trump’s attempt to mend fences with Moscow. Washington’s reputation with Ukraine and other countries that depend on US leadership in NATO and other organisations for their security and safety may also suffer greatly. “A half-baked negotiator could have settled this years ago without the loss of much land, very little land, without the loss of any lives,” Trump stated.
