To appreciate the dramatic shift in President Donald Trump’s policy towards Ukraine, consider two scenes in the Oval Office, months apart:

Bolton told Newsweek that Trump's pursuit of a Nobel Prize has clouded his foreign policy, particularly on the war in Ukraine.

Donald Trump privately urged Ukraine to strike targets deep inside Russia, including Moscow, if supplied with advanced US weapons, signalling a pivotal policy shift in the war and raising stakes for Nato and Kremlin escalation.
