  • Almost three and a half years after the conflict in Ukraine resulting from a Russian invasion, the situation has changed. NATO has reduced Volodimir Zelensky's presence at his meetings.
  • Donald Trump has played an important role in this shift of focus, leading to Ukraine being marginalized from the priorities of international institutions.
  • Attention has shifted towards tensions in the Middle East between Israel and Iran, benefiting Russia which has seen itself freed from western pressure.
  • Ukraine still depends on Europe's support but is aware that without US support, its military position against Russia weakens.
  • Zelenski has asked for 0.25% of GDP in aid from European countries.
  • The EU is preparing another package of sanctions against Russia while Ukraine fears being marginalized from the international agenda.

Conclusion: The conflict in Ukraine remains stagnant and Trump's rise to power has meant a setback in US attention and support. Amid this scenario, Ukraine is sidelined while the international focus has shifted to the Middle East.
