  • Ukraine and its supporters in Washington and Europe had worried that Trump would return to the White House with the view that Kyiv was the main barrier to ending the war. But the president-elect's social media posts suggest he views Putin and not Ukraine as the problem, the two sources and former U.S. officials said.

The article from NBC News discusses how former President Donald Trump's team has been engaging in discussions with Ukrainian officials about potentially ending the ongoing war with Russia if Trump were to win the 2024 presidential election. These talks involve Trump's advisers, including former national security officials, who have been in contact with Ukrainian leadership to explore possible peace negotiations. The discussions are informal and speculative, focusing on what a Trump administration might do to resolve the conflict, which has persisted since Russia's invasion in February 2022. Key points include Trump's previous comments on quickly resolving the conflict, his criticism of the Biden administration's handling of the war, and the potential implications of his proposed solutions, which some fear might involve concessions to Russia. However, no formal agreements or commitments have been made, and the talks remain exploratory in nature.
