While Trump's new Russia policy announcement was welcomed by and large, there are still challenges ahead that will require more from America.

With his announcement to supply Ukraine with weapons worth up to $10 billion, President Donald Trump has effectively reversed his administration’s official policy on the NATO war against Russia. The new deliveries include, among other things, Patriot air defence systems and long-range missiles capable of reaching major Russian cities.

Russian officials and commentators have shown little indication that Moscow is about to change course under new pressure.

US President Donald Trump’s 50-day pause ahead of possible secondary sanctions on Russia gifts the Kremlin a window to exploit the incremental gains of recent weeks in Ukraine’s east.

“Based on the ridiculous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I have asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “This SCAM, perpetuated by the Democrats, should end, right now!”

The Kremlin said on Tuesday that U.S. President Donald Trump's recent statements, including a threat of sanctions on buyers of Russian exports, are serious and require analysis.

Trump’s threat isn’t just non-credible – the positive market reaction in Russia suggests it is a gift for Moscow. The 50-day ultimatum is seen not as a deadline but as a reprieve, meaning nearly two months of guaranteed inaction from the US.

Only tough pressure can force the Kremlin to make concessions. And the American president, Donald Trump, is capable of this, states Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, according to the New York Post.
