Trump Axis Ukraine: Back away, or supports the winner?

The Trump administration appears to be behind Ukraine, as long as something in the United States.

It seems that this increased consensus between European politicians, diplomats, experts and editorial writers.

On the one hand, there are an increasing number of voices who say they believe that the amazing axis of US President Donald Trump this week towards Ukraine’s support is nothing more than an unpleasant policy and images management in the face of the amazing peace process.

Others say it actually indicates that Washington is a step back from a long -term war and the peace process that Trump has started.

“It seems to me that he is walking away and handing the key to the car to the Europeans,” said Matthew Schmidt, an Eastern European expert at New Haveen University.

“I think Trump is driven by the desire to win the Nobel Peace Prize and extreme embarrassment of failure … I think this says,” I don’t think I can win this. I do not want to risk losing that and attached to me. “

Trump did not provide the logical basis for change in the direction.

In his declaration on social media on Tuesday, Trump said he now believes that Ukraine could restore all its lands that Russia invaded with the help of Europe.

It was praised up and down in the political spectrum.

Ukrainian President Folodimir Zelinski went to the extent that Trump was “good knowledge” and that he clearly understood the situation in the battlefield.

These notes are light years, years of tense confrontation in the Oval Office in the past winter, which witnessed that Trump announces that Ukraine had no “cards” and needs to make regional concessions.

Trump was famously boasted that he could end the war within 24 hours and went this summer to host Russian President Vladimir Putin at a TV summit in Alaska.

Not much, so far, came from a dramatic peace voltage.

Many European leaders said about Trump’s face, but Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, who writes on social media, said that Trump’s clear support for Ukraine is misinterpreted.

“President Trump has stated that Ukraine can restore, with the support of the European Union, all its territory. This surprising optimism hides a promise to reduce the participation of the United States and turn responsibility for ending the war to Europe,” Task wrote on Wednesday.

“The truth is better than illusion.”

There is another, more charitable – if not commercial -. Increased American economic interest in the critical metal sector in Ukraine and the continuous negotiation of the drone deal of up to $ 30 billion, which will benefit the American army directly, could be behind the president’s situation.

In his speech to the United Nations, Zelinski said that his country is ready to share drones in partnerships with Western countries.

The United States had very little to say about negotiations. However, before its appearance at the United Nations, Zelenskyy said that Ukraine had submitted a draft discussion of discussion. It is expected that the investments in the production of drones in Ukraine, and the joint or joint production agreements and the purchase of weapons from the United States will cover

Last summer, Canada signed a joint partnership for the production of drones with Ukraine.

Schmidt said that he does not participate in the idea that Trump is motivated by economic or military benefits of cooperation with Ukraine. He also opposes the president’s view that the fate of Ukraine in the hands of Europe-as long as it continues to recruit members of the army and receive high-end air defense capabilities.

“Ukraine is doing a lot now and is self -sufficient,” said Schmidt. “I have discovered how to produce weapons, train drones. As I think, efficiency, strategic leadership.”

This efficiency and strategic thinking have been shown since the end of August when Ukraine launched its campaign targeting Russian oil refineries. It is estimated that the drone strikes have been unable to about 17 percent, or the sixth one, from Russia’s ability to disagree with oil.

Several reports published in some days have suggested that the repetition decreased by up to 20 percent.

The entire processed attacks were strategically disrupted such as Ryazan, Volgaged and Salavat, which reduced the size of duplicate petroleum products available locally in Russia and to export.
