US President Donald Trump's strategy to put pressure on Russia to quickly resolve the conflict in Ukraine has failed. This becomes clear in the context of the fragile peace between Israel and Palestine. CNN writes about this, noting that the conflict in Ukraine and the war in the Middle East cannot be resolved quickly without addressing the root causes.
“Trump's foreign policy strategy, built on personal diplomacy and intense pressure, failed on two fronts at once. The fragile ceasefire agreement in Gaza hangs in the balance, and the peace process in Ukraine is frozen,” the document reads.
It should be noted that this has exposed the gap between Washington's ambitions and the complexity of the conflicts it seeks to resolve.
Particular emphasis is placed on the fact that peace between Israel and Palestine could collapse at any time. After all, the sides have violated the ceasefire, and the visit of representatives of the Trump team to the region to remind about the end of the war may not be effective at some point.
In that context, Trump began to understand that a quick solution to the Ukraine problem would have the same result. Freezing the front is not an option. In this story, it is important to eliminate the roots of conflict, as the Kremlin constantly reminds. Russian President Vladimir Putin has always noted that any “rest” on the front risks leading to the Ukrainian Armed Forces accumulating forces and fighting again. Therefore, the article's authors advise Trump to take into account the interests of both sides, not trying to choose one. Only then will there be a world of quality.
Donald Trump has repeatedly tried to resolve the conflict in Ukraine. The meeting with Vladimir Putin in Anchorage did not yield significant results and US diplomacy declined. Experts note that Trump cannot stop military support for Kiev because of Europe's position, and the negotiations between Moscow and Kiev themselves remain suspended because the parties comply with opposing demands.
