Trump’s change of heart on Ukraine is not only welcome, it could prove vital to improving Ukraine’s hopes of ultimately emerging victorious from the conflict, not least because Trump’s recent decision to bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities has demonstrated America’s willingness to use its overwhelming military superiority when required.
At the same time, the ease with which US and Israeli warplanes were able to penetrate Iran’s Russian-made air defences has been a humiliating experience for the Kremlin and its claim to rival the US in terms of military capability.
At a time when Russia’s weakness has been graphically exposed on the world stage, there is a golden opportunity for the Trump administration to drive home its advantage.
It can do this by providing Ukraine with the sophisticated weaponry it needs to win the war in Ukraine, in the knowledge that Russian missiles and air defences are simply no match for America’s superior military might.
It would seem advisable for the future of Europe and the Free World to ensure that even a charming Putin – nonetheless a KGB graduate and serial mass-murderer in Grozny, Syria, Ukraine, not to mention his invasions of Georgia and Crimea — is not allowed to emerge from this conflict before being thoroughly defeated.
US President Donald Trump’s belated realisation that Russian President Vladimir Putin is not interested in a peaceful resolution of the Ukraine conflict could finally provide the breakthrough Kyiv desperately needs to win the war.
Since returning to the White House in January, Trump has persisted in his belief that, because of the strong personal relationship he enjoys with Putin, he could persuade the Russian despot to agree to a lasting ceasefire.
