Nothing suggests Russia is ready to come to the table, regardless of who ends up in the White House , analysts say.

For Putin , “ Ukraine is just a means to an end, and the end is to further limit US influence in international affairs, an analyst says.

A reduction in US aid spending could very well translate to changes on the battlefield, experts say.

Ukraine is already outmanned and Putin appears ready to accept a high number of casualties.

If a potential Trump administration cuts US aid, Ukraine would become increasingly outgunned.

European nations are scrambling to increase ammunition production for Ukraine to prevent backsliding.

Even if US policy continues along the current trajectory, Kyiv’s Western allies don’t appear willing to send the resources needed to make battlefield gains.
