The demilitarised zone would be “heavily fortified so the Russians don’t invade again” Vice President JD Vance said during an interview in September.
A Trump source said, “We can do training and other support but the barrel of the gun is going to be European.
We are not sending American men and women to uphold peace in Ukraine. And we are not paying for it. Get the Poles, Germans, British and French to do it.”
During his campaign Trump has repeatedly said he will end the war quickly and will bring Kyiv and Moscow to the table. Trump said, “I can’t give you those plans because if I give you those plans, I’m not going to be able to use them.”
Kurt Volkner, a former adviser to Mr Trump on Ukraine, said Tump is “going to make a phone call to Putin as quickly as possible and tell Putin that he needs to stop the war, that the fighting has to stop, and that there has to be peace.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said in response: “We have repeatedly said that the US is able to contribute to the end of this conflict.
“This cannot be done overnight, but… the US is capable of changing the trajectory of its foreign policy.
“Will this happen, and if so, how … we will see after (the US president’s inauguration in) January.”
