Ex-Trump ally criticizes expected U.S. policy on Ukraine as conflict escalates

Piers Morgan criticized reports that Vladimir Putin is unwilling to make major territorial concessions in Ukraine. He expressed frustration over the idea of the West conceding to Russia after its invasion and ongoing violence against Ukraine. The war has intensified, with Russia making gains in the eastern Donetsk region. The involvement of North Korean troops has escalated the conflict, prompting a shift in U.S. policy to allow Ukraine to use longer-range missiles. Putin has responded to U.S. support for Ukraine by lowering the threshold for nuclear weapon use. His new doctrine allows for a potential nuclear response to conventional attacks supported by nuclear powers.
