Could the Trump administration stop targeting Ukraine?

Experts have different opinions on whether the US will weaken or strengthen its global leadership, but Trump's actions will undoubtedly lead to significant changes in relations with Europe, Russia and China. Political scientists who were guests of the "Geopolitics" project expressed their opinions on the topic.

— Shuhrat Rasulov: If the United States decides to withdraw from the game, which is currently expected, then the European Union's ability to take the initiative on Ukraine will be questionable. Because the European Union has problems with decision-making, where all members of the union must vote, and even if one country votes against, it will be difficult to make a decision.

The country that could vote against is Hungary, and it is not alone at the moment, because Slovakia can also support it in this regard. Large countries can continue to support Ukraine through extra-budgetary funds.

Recently, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz made a proposal on this issue. Countries such as Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Poland could do this, but it is questionable whether countries such as Portugal, Slovakia or Hungary would join the campaign.

If assistance is necessary, European countries, united, could provide military assistance to Ukraine not on behalf of the union, but each country on its own behalf. If Brussels fails to resolve the problem and Russian troops break through the Ukrainian front and approach the Dnieper, European countries will still have to involve their troops in the war, albeit separately, which will cost them more than providing military assistance to Ukraine at this time.
