Trump discusses impossibility of truce in coming monthsAccording to journalists, Trump and his team were initially determined to achieve a complete ceasefire in Ukraine by April or May, and to negotiate a lasting peace in the months that followed.After more than two months in the White House, they eventually concluded that none of these goals were realistic.The Trump administration has finally realized the likelihood of a protracted war and the importance of additional support for Ukraines military operations from its Western allies.
Senior U.S.
officials have complained privately for weeks about Kyivs handling of the negotiations and what they see as resistance to a minerals deal with Washington and to advancing peace talks.
But in recent days, officials have become increasingly frustrated with Moscow, the sources said.
The White House has finally acknowledged the fact that it is Russian dictator Putin, not Ukrainian leader Zelensky, who is actively preventing the United States from reaching a lasting peace agreement.
Trump has said for weeks that he trusts the Russian ruler and believes he is committed to peace, but in recent days the White House has been wary of Putins intentions.
