Donald Trump‘s decision to suspend new sanctions on Russia and expand Russian diesel imports has deepened concerns in Kyiv over US support for Ukraine. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned the move could encourage Vladimir Putin as Russia continues attackson Ukrainian infrastructure.
DW spoke with geopolitics expert Harry Nedelcu about the widening rift between Zelenskyy and Trump and the impact this could have on Ukraine’s increasingly vulnerable position ahead of the winter.
