Washington Post: Trump sees political benefits in Ukraine's defeat. Booth argues that Trump has turned the Republican Party, which once prided itself on standing up to the "evil empire," "into Putin's poodle" According to Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who previously met with Trump, the American politician will not give money to Ukraine if he is re-elected as president.
Europe without the United States will not be able to finance the conflict, and it will end, Booth writes.
