For Trump, the Ukraine war is just a distant conflict, not an urgent priority.
During the high-level G7 meetings happening in the French city of Evian, many Euro-Globalist leaders were quick to celebrate the fact that, according to them, US President Donald J. Trump has changed his tone on the Russia-Ukraine war, and would be ready to join the EU in pressuring Moscow to end the war.
Slavyangrad in Telegram reported on German Chancellor Friedrich Merz commenting on this very issue:
“I can probably say, without violating the confidentiality of the discussions, that what gives us all reason for confidence is President Trump’s statement – ‘Russia must end this war’. And I believe this is a clear signal. Russia must end this war.”
But while the G7 Summit tried to focus on helping Ukraine, Trump himself made it clear that helping the Ukraine war effort is not on his priority list.
Trump says the US has nothing to do with the war in Ukraine:

The New York Times reported:
“’Look, we have nothing to do with it’, Mr. Trump said of the war. ‘It has no impact on us, other than we sell weapons’ to Ukraine, he added. ‘We’re thousands of miles away’.”
For decades, the Europeans relied on the US for protection, until Trump made them understand that they should do more to defend themselves.
“Mr. Trump said he had met with Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, at the summit in Évian-les-Bains, France, where the two leaders also participated in a discussion with other world leaders about the war in Ukraine.
Mr. Trump described the meeting with Mr. Zelensky as ‘very good’ and said he would meet with him again later. He also repeated the assertion he has made over the past year that Russia should make a deal. But asked whether he would have a ‘special focus’ on Ukraine, Mr. Trump made it clear that he would not.
Though the Iran conflict would soon be ‘in the rear view’, Mr. Trump said, he was still for now ‘focused on Iran’.”
