Trump's Hesitation on Russia Sanctions Fuels International Tension

Ukraine and the West anxiously await Trump's response to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. European leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy have expressed their disappointment over Trump's perceived reluctance to impose sanctions on Russia. The situation is further complicated by a proposed Russian memorandum, which could influence Trump's decision. 'European leaders were very disappointed because Trump directly stated he would not impose any sanctions,' says one political analyst, referencing a recent Financial Times report. The outcome of Trump's decision will have significant implications for the future of the conflict and the international political landscape.
