Two Trump aides who have discussed the war in Ukraine with the president-elect said they were looking at a resolution of the war within months, calling promises of a peace deal on the first day of the presidency “a combination of campaign bluff and an underestimation of the intractability of the conflict and the time needed to staff up.” new administration”.
Those estimates echo those of Trump’s incoming envoy on Russia and Ukraine, retired Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, who said in an interview with Fox News last week that he would like a “decision” on the war within 100 days, well beyond the original timeline , established by the elected president.
Context
On the eve of his victory in the elections on November 5, Trump declared dozens of times that he would conclude an agreement between Ukraine and Russia on the very first day of his tenure in office, if not earlier. However, at the end of October, he barely perceptibly changed his rhetoric and began to say that he would be able to solve the problem of war “very quickly.”
Donald Trump believes that an agreement on Ukraine is impossible without a dialogue with Russia. He plans to work on it in the coming months.
