Trump, Zelensky Discuss Future U.S. Support

Former President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had a significant phone call discussing the war in Ukraine and potential future U.S. support. Trump, who accepted the Republican nomination for president, pledged to end the war swiftly if he wins the election, though he did not provide specific details on how this would be achieved. Zelensky emphasized the importance of continued U.S. support and expressed gratitude for past aid. Trump's ambiguous stance on Ukraine has raised concerns among European and Ukrainian officials about the future of U.S. military and economic support. Trump has previously suggested that Ukraine might need to cede some territory for peace, a position that contrasts sharply with President Biden's strong support for Ukraine. The call underscores the high stakes of the upcoming U.S. election for international relations and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
