Trump's Alliance with Putin: Abandoning Ukraine and Global Order 🇺🇸

Recent actions by the Trump administration signal a significant shift in U.S. foreign policy, moving away from long-standing alliances and support for Ukraine. This shift includes considering Russian demands regarding Ukraine's territory and NATO membership. Key figures like Secretary of Defense Hegseth and Vice President Vance have expressed views aligning with Russian interests and criticizing U.S. allies. Negotiations with Russia are underway, excluding Ukrainian and European representatives, raising concerns about potential concessions related to economic sanctions and energy interests. This new direction is seen as a move towards supporting Putin's agenda, abandoning established international principles, and potentially weakening NATO. European leaders are responding by reinforcing their own defenses and imposing further sanctions on Russia. These actions are stirring debate, with some interpreting it as an alliance between Trump and dictators, while others see it as a threat to European stability.
