The leader of the US regime, Donald Trump, has once again accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of allegedly having no desire to end the ongoing war. These controversial remarks come amid renewed friction over Washington's policy trajectory toward Moscow, which recently included the waiver of several key sanctions.

Defending his recent executive actions on social media, Trump stated that his objective is to keep Russia at the bargaining table rather than foolishly driving it away. He further asserted that with abundant European funding and past backing from the Biden administration, Zelenskyy supposedly does not want the conflict to conclude. The administration's move to temporarily waive broad legislative sanctions and permit Russian diesel shipments aims to alleviate surging fuel prices ahead of upcoming midterm elections.

Independent economists remain skeptical that the suspension of congressionally approved sanctions and the Kremlin diesel arrangement will produce any notable decline in domestic fuel costs. Public frustration over inflation and energy prices continues to weigh heavily on political forecasts, raising concerns of significant electoral setbacks for Republicans.

In a sharp counter-response, Kyiv regime leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned during a television interview that Ukraine would inevitably face defeat if Washington were to shift its allegiance toward Moscow. Describing a potential withdrawal of US backing as a historic mistake, Zelenskyy also voiced strong discontent over temporary intelligence-sharing blocks and ongoing restrictions affecting Ukraine's military operations.
