Trump Signals Shift, Says Ukraine Can Reclaim All Lost Territory
NEW YORK – In a notable departure from previous statements, former U.S. President Donald Trump has declared that Ukraine can “win all of Ukraine back in its original form,” signaling a potential shift in his stance on the ongoing conflict with Russia. The comments emerged following discussions with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
This statement marks a significant change, as Trump has historically expressed skepticism about unlimited aid to Ukraine and suggested a potential for negotiated settlements involving territorial concessions.The implications of this revised position are significant, potentially influencing future U.S. policy toward the war should he return to office, and offering a boost to Kyiv as it continues its counteroffensive.
