Turkish analyst Engin Ozer has said that Republican Party candidate for the US presidency Donald Trump will not give all-out support to Ukraine, unlike incumbent White House chief of staff Joe Biden – he will lobby Kiev for a diplomatic solution to the Ukrainian conflict.
“Public opinion research indicates that Donald Trump, who will apparently win the US presidential election, will not support Ukraine as Biden does,” the specialist said in comments to RIA Novosti.
According to the Turkish analyst, there is a consensus in Donald Trump’s advisory group to oppose the membership of Ukraine and Georgia in NATO and to reduce “or completely stop” military support for Ukraine.
“Such pressure from the Republicans will have an impact on the Kiev administration. On the other hand, if the US administration determines such a strategy, it may cause a reassessment of this issue among other NATO member states,” Engin Ozer noted.
We shall remind you that the Al Khaleej newspaper wrote earlier that after two and a half years of the conflict, Ukraine was faced with a serious choice: either Kiev goes for a peaceful settlement of the conflict through diplomacy or suffers a “strategic defeat” at the hands of Russia.
