Trump's election prompts new tensions in Ukraine war as strategies shift

Tensions in the Ukraine war have escalated sharply, with Russia increasing attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure and lowering its nuclear response threshold. Recent missile strikes on Dnipro have raised concerns about a significant escalation in the conflict. The recent U.S. election results, with Donald Trump winning, have prompted both Ukraine and Russia to reassess their strategies. Trump’s potential approach may involve a peace deal that could require Ukraine to cede territory and delay NATO membership, though details remain unclear. European leaders are considering their roles in any peace negotiations, with some suggesting they could send forces to support a deal. However, Ukraine's leadership is wary of any agreement that compromises its territorial integrity, complicating the path to negotiations.
