The Memo: Trump paints himself into a corner on Putin and Ukraine

E-mail Print PDF

Trump/PutinPresident Trump has boxed himself into a corner with Vladimir Putin over the war in Ukraine — and it’s not entirely clear how he gets out.

Trump’s claim that he could end the war in Ukraine within “24 hours” of retaking office has already been falsified by events.

The president is now stuck between a Ukrainian president whom he regards with great skepticism and a Russian president who won’t do what he wants.

Specifically, Putin has launched intensifying barrages of drone and missile attacks against Ukrainian cities in recent days. In doing so, he is issuing the most obvious statement of defiance against Trump’s desire for a ceasefire.

Yet, at the same time, Trump has for a long time set his face against maintaining the scale and cadence of U.S. aid to Ukraine that was delivered under former President Biden after the Russian invasion of February 2022.
