Trump shifts U.S. stance on Russia, blames Ukraine for conflict during peace talks

President Trump has shifted U.S. policy towards Russia, suggesting that Ukraine is to blame for the ongoing conflict. This marks a significant change from previous U.S. positions that held Russia responsible for its invasion of Ukraine. During peace talks in Saudi Arabia, Trump indicated a willingness to align with President Putin, stating that Ukraine's leaders should have made concessions. This stance contrasts sharply with the long-standing U.S. view of Russia as a threat. Trump's approach represents a major departure from decades of American foreign policy, which has traditionally viewed Russia with caution. His comments signal a potential realignment in U.S. relations with both allies and adversaries.
