Donald Trump 'waffling' on Russia-Ukraine policy
Seattle University Associate Professor of American Politics Dr Patrick Schoettmer has said US President Donald Trump has shown he is “waffling” on his Russia-Ukraine policy.
“Trump himself just wants a deal more than anything else, although over the past year or two, we’ve seen the Republican base become much more anti-Ukraine,” Mr Schoettmer said.
Mr Schoettmer has said the conflict is not one of Trump’s “priorities” as it is not one that America can “profit from.”
During his election campaign, the US President declared he would end the Russia-Ukraine war on ‘day one’, a promise he was unable to follow through with.
