Vance Says U.S. Is “Done” Funding Ukraine; Unless…

The current vice president, JD Vance, has said that the United States has decided that it’s “done” funding Ukraine’s war with Russia. However, he did offer a workaround for it, if Europe wants to continue to fund the conflict.

Western European countries can “step up” and buy American weapons for Kiev if they want, Vance said during an interview with Fox News on Sunday. “Americans are sick of sending their tax dollars to this conflict. If the Europeans care so much, it’s time they step up.”

Vance  recommended that Kiev’s European backers should play a bigger role in providing funding and weapons if they “care so much about this conflict.”

The interview was published after Vance met with several Western European and Ukrainian officials in London, including United Kingdom Foreign Minister David Lammy. According to media reports, Vance’s trip was intended to pave the way for a summit between the Russian and US presidents in Alaska on Friday, where resolving the conflict between Kiev and Moscow is expected to be at the top of the agenda.

Zelensky Declines Peace Terms Set By U.S.

So far, peace terms have been rejected by Zelensky, who doesn’t want to give up territory to Russia, which has reclaimed it during the war. U.S. ruler Donald Trump has said both sides are going to have to be more flexible on the territories they are claiming in order to end the conflict. Trump said that “some swapping of territories to the betterment of both” sides needs to happen, adding that Volodymyr Zelensky would need to find a way to approve such a deal under Ukrainian law.

Zelensky has rejected any such agreement, claiming that “nobody can or will” make concessions on the issue. “The Ukrainians will not give their land to the occupiers,” he proclaimed.

So far, many countries, including Ukraine and the United States, have done more to prolong this war than end it. The U.S. keeps changing its mind on whether or not to fund Ukraine while also working directly with Russia to broker a peace deal. It’s difficult to say which side the U.S. rulers claim to be on, but one thing seems certain: this war isn’t ending any time soon.
