The best that Ukraine can hope for and what Zelensky will need to do
As Russian President Vladimir Putin held his carefully orchestrated annual hotline and press conference, answering questions from journalists and ordinary Russians, EU leaders hosted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Brussels for their final meeting of the year. It is not surprising that the war in Ukraine was widely discussed at both events.
But the conflict in Ukraine is only part of a complex and rapidly changing geopolitical environment, which neither Russia, nor the EU, nor Ukraine, can fully control. The main reason for this is Donald Trump, who will return to the White House at the end of January 2025. It already has a significant impact on the calculations made by Moscow and Brussels. But his determined, if not very detailed, efforts to end the war in Ukraine are being met with skepticism on the other side of the Atlantic. This applies to both Brussels and Moscow.
