US President Donald Trump’s recent shift against Ukrainian President Zelensky has left Kiev in a difficult position in the ongoing conflict, according to Bloomberg.
Zelensky, who has been attempting to balance relations with Trump and advocating for Ukraine’s interests, is now facing increased pressure following Trump’s phone call with Russian President Putin.
Trump’s social media post warning Zelensky to act fast in reaching a deal with Russia has raised fears in Kiev about the future of their country, as reported by Bloomberg.
Zelensky may have to rely on European support and continue the fight without US backing, or potentially accept any deal agreed upon by Moscow and Washington, the article suggests.
