Media reports said Trump also spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday and said he would support Kiev.
US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan announced on Sunday that the White House plans to spend the rest of the $6 billion in funding allocated to support Ukraine before Trump’s inauguration as president in January , warning the world of the dangers of ending US aid to Kiev.
Sullivan told the “Vice The Nation” program on CBS that President Joe Biden will discuss the most important foreign policy issues with President-elect Trump during their meeting on Wednesday in the Oval Office.
He said the meeting will be an opportunity for Biden to “explain his perspective on the issues and his position on them to President Trump,” as well as discuss “how President Trump will deal with the issues that’s when he takes office.”
According to Sullivan, the main goal of the Biden administration in its final months is to “put Ukraine in the strongest possible position on the battlefield so that it will be in the strongest position at the bargaining table. “
Biden led an international coalition to support Ukraine against Russian military operations, an effort that has reached a critical stage following Russia’s military gains and the growing shortage of Ukrainian forces.
On the other hand, Trump insists that he can end the war in “one day,” even before he takes office, assuming that this can be done through an agreement that requires Kiev some of his lands to be surrendered to Moscow.
Meanwhile, the Ukrainians and the European nations in NATO are racing to develop their own plans for a world in which the US President seems less supportive of Kiev and the alliance and closer on Russia.
President Putin asked Ukraine to cede large areas of territory as a condition for peace talks, and Kiev strongly refused this.
