Trump expresses deep concern over rising munitions in Russia-Ukraine conflict, adviser says

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump is "incredibly concerned" about the increasing use of weaponry in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, according to his incoming national security adviser, Michael Waltz. He described the fighting in eastern Ukraine as resembling "World War I trench warfare." Waltz noted that the Biden administration's decision to allow Ukraine to use anti-personnel land mines has intensified the conflict. He emphasized the need for a broader strategy to end the war and restore peace. In recent developments, the U.S. has provided Ukraine with missiles capable of striking deep into Russia, prompting a response from Russia with new missile launches. Waltz expressed confidence that Trump will work towards peace in various global conflicts, including those in the Middle East.
