Donald Trump’s reelection may lead to a significant decrease in U.S. support for Ukraine in its war with Russia. Throughout his campaign, Trump and his running mate expressed skepticism about ongoing U.S. commitment to Ukraine, suggesting a potential push for a truce with Russia. As the conflict continues, Ukraine faces challenges, particularly in the eastern Donbas region, where Russia is gaining ground. U.S. officials have warned that North Korean troops may soon join Russian forces in combat against Ukraine. Under the Biden administration, the U.S. has provided substantial aid to Ukraine. However, Trump’s past comments and actions raise concerns about future support. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky acknowledged the uncertainty but emphasized the importance of U.S. commitment for Ukraine's success.
