Ukraine’s former commander slams Biden team’s indecision, calls to "reckon" with Trump’s policies
He wrote about this in his column on the Ukrainian Pravda website.Zaluzhnyi noted that the world order that emerged after World War II and the collapse of the Soviet Union is clearly falling apart. In his opinion, “the war in Ukraine has dealt a near-final blow to the foundations of the old world and signalled its definitive end.”"Indeed, the hesitancy of the Biden administration and the United States as a whole in making critical decisions to support Ukraine in defeating Russia has not only underscored their diminishing influence on global affairs but also appeared as a last-ditch effort to preserve the existing world order," the ambassador said.He emphasized that it was the fear of Russia's possible defeat that led to the protracted war on the one hand and to increased financial and political costs on the other."The drawn-out conflict, deeper involvement of democratic economies – especially the United States – and the formation of strategic alliances by Russia have led to an unwillingness to incur excessive costs without clear political justification. As a result, new forces emerged to counterbalance the situation. The American electorate made its legitimate choice, signalling to us that the world is changing irreversibly. This world really needed changes. It’s no coincidence that as early as 2007, someone announced such a shift at the Munich Security Conference. And it’s equally unsurprising that in 2024, Americans re-elected Donald Trump as their president. Despite heavy criticism, he represents a historical trend – one that must be acknowledged and reckoned with," Zaluzhnyi wrote.In his opinion, Washington is seeking to reduce spending on external assets, especially in Europe, and take a break to prepare for competition with China."This is evident in both the rhetoric and actual decisions that increasingly prioritize domestic concerns and cast doubt on the unconditional continuation of aid to Ukraine," the ambassador explained.He also noted that the United States, as part of building a new world order, is likely to seek to dominate the Western Hemisphere and the Pacific, reducing its involvement in the Old World at the expense of Europe and Canada."This is why the 2024 presidential race led to predictable shifts in foreign policy and aid to Ukraine. In the new reality, military support is no longer automatic or guaranteed. A willingness to engage with Russia, possibly due to an alternative United States vision of the war, poses new political and security risks. Immediate action is needed to refocus United States attention on Ukraine, because Ukraine’s victory is crucial to preserving America’s global leadership," Valeriy Zaluzhnyi summarized.In May, Valeriy Zaluzhnyi said that given Russia's resources, Ukraine should not have high hopes of returning to the 1991 or 2022 borders.
