The situation in Ukraine has taken a dire turn, and President Donald Trump's recent statement has only added to the country's woes. By excluding President Volodymyr Zelensky from initial US-Russia talks on ending the conflict, Trump's move is seen as a significant blow to Ukraine's interests. This development is likely to embolden Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has been accused of fueling the conflict. As the crisis deepens, Ukraine's future looks increasingly uncertain, with the US-Russia negotiations potentially paving the way for a new era of Russian influence in the region, sparking concerns about global security and international relations, including geopolitics and diplomacy.
