The opposing conviction of U.S. President Donald Trump that he can end the Russia-Ukraine war in one day seems to persist even as the ongoing crisis remains unresolved. The existing conflict has caused a deterioration in relations between Moscow and Kyiv.
According to Trump’s statements, he is more convinced than ever that thanks to his diplomatic skills, the Russia-Ukraine war will be halted almost instantly. However, on the ground, the situation appears more complicated than a simple solution to the question to end it in one day.
Relations between Russia and Ukraine have significantly escalated following Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014 and the outbreak of armed conflict in eastern Ukraine, which has led to the loss of thousands of lives. At the same time, Ukraine insists that Russia is directing troops and weapons into its territory, which Moscow denies.
