Trump Attributes Ukraine War Delay to Putin-Zelenskyy Hostility, Sees Deal NearPreviousNext

US President Donald Trump expressed optimism about a near resolution to the Russia-Ukraine war, attributing delays to the deep animosity between Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and Russian President Putin. He claimed the conflict would not have started if he were president and suggested Ukraine might accept territorial changes in a settlement. Trump also dismissed prospects of escalating conflict with Iran post-US midterms, stating Iran's nuclear material is securely stored and US military goals have been met. Upcoming trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi aim to address the war and security issues.
