Shifting U.S. Foreign Policy Towards Russia
The U.S. foreign policy landscape is undergoing significant changes, particularly concerning Russia and Ukraine. The Trump administration appears to be pursuing a more conciliatory approach towards Russia, intending to engage in talks aimed at resolving the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. A prospective meeting between U.S. and Russian officials in Saudi Arabia could set the stage for negotiations that exclude key stakeholders like Ukraine and European allies, raising concerns among these nations about their future security. Many fear this shift might embolden Russia's ambitions and diminish U.S. commitments to its European partners.
