The Trump administration has shifted from enforcing sanctions to using tariffs against Russia, with limited success in stopping countries from buying Russian oil. This dangerous pivot undermines global democracy and emboldens authoritarian regimes while failing to hold Putin accountable for his aggression.
President Donald Trump warned Russia that he may send Ukraine long-range Tomahawk missiles if Moscow doesn't settle its war there soon. This reckless escalation risks plunging us deeper into a devastating conflict that endangers global stability and human lives.
President Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff was recorded advising a Putin aide on how the Russian leader should approach Trump to pitch a Ukraine peace plan, coaching the Kremlin on diplomatic strategy with a sitting U.S. president. The revelation exposes a deeply troubling breach of diplomatic propriety that undermines American sovereignty and dangerously blurs the lines between negotiation and appeasement of an aggressive foreign power.
