Diplomatic talks this week highlighted increasing discord between Europe and the United States over the war in Ukraine. European leaders are focused on ensuring a robust and democratic Ukraine capable of resisting Russian aggression, as emphasized by President Macron. Conversely, the Trump administration aims for a quick resolution that favors U.S. economic interests, leading to misalignment between American and European policies. This disconnect suggests a fracturing alliance at a critical moment for Ukraine, where unity is essential for negotiating a lasting peace.
European leaders made clear that their priority is a free, democratic and stable Ukraine able to withstand any further Russian aggression.
The allies, if they are still that, resembled ships passing in the night, with President Trump on course to reward President Vladimir V. Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
