Trump Must Be Isolated

After the public spat that President Donald Trump had with President Zelenskyy of Ukraine, a few facts emerge.

- SUNIL SHARAN

After the public spat that President Donald Trump had with President Zelenskyy of Ukraine, a few facts emerge. The American dislikes the Ukrainian intensely. Trump refused Zelenskyy's demand, a perfectly reasonable one, that Russia pay Ukraine reparations for starting the war. President Emmanuel Macron of France declared in the White House in front of Trump that Europe has $300 billion of frozen Russian assets and those will be used to pay reparations to Ukraine.

It's also clear, and it has been for many years, that Trump and President Vladimir Putin of Russia get along fabulously. It's rumored that Putin has something on Trump, but that's just a rumor. Trump stated during his meeting with Zelenskyy that he and Putin have been through hell together. Trump wants Zelenskyy to cede territory to Russia, but Zelenskyy, quite understandably, refuses to barter an inch.

It's also clear where the war is heading. The mighty Russian machine, of which all the Europeans and even the Americans were scared, has been stalled for three years by a brave tiny country, Ukraine. American cash and kind was flowing to Ukraine freely and without condition under President Biden. Now Trump wants to be compensated for that aid by asking for half of Ukraine's rare earth mineral resources.
