Trump Shifts, Resumes Ukraine Aid, Eyes Russia Sanctions

News summary

President Donald Trump has expressed frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin, accusing him of making meaningless promises and failing to negotiate an end to the Ukraine war. Trump, who campaigned on ending the conflict within 24 hours, acknowledged his efforts have not succeeded and said he feels disrespected by Putin. In response to increased Russian aggression and stalled diplomacy, Trump reversed a Pentagon decision to pause certain weapons shipments, authorizing new defensive aid to Ukraine, including 10 Patriot missile systems. He also indicated strong consideration of bipartisan Senate proposals for new sanctions targeting Russian oil exports. Trump criticized Putin over mounting civilian and military casualties and emphasized that his support for Ukraine differs from previous U.S. administrations. This marks a significant shift in Trump's approach, signaling a more assertive U.S. stance amid ongoing violence in Ukraine.
