Biden’s statement comes as his term nears its end, with former President Donald Trump set to assume office in January. Biden has been a staunch advocate for Ukraine, overseeing almost $60 billion in US military aid since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022. “This attack underscores the critical importance of supporting Ukraine in its defense,” Biden said, urging Americans to remain steadfast in their backing for Kyiv.
Trump’s return to the White House is expected to bring significant changes to US policy toward Ukraine. While he has pledged to mediate peace talks between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin, critics fear Trump may use US military aid as leverage to push Kyiv into concessions.
On Wednesday, Trump announced retired General Keith Kellogg as his Ukraine envoy. Kellogg co-authored a paper earlier this year suggesting that the US could leverage military assistance to encourage peace negotiations, potentially requiring Ukraine to cede occupied territories or agree not to join NATO.
As the Biden administration doubles down on its support for Ukraine in its final weeks, the future of US involvement remains uncertain under Trump. While Trump’s critics warn of potential compromises that may favor Russia, his supporters argue that a swift resolution to the conflict is essential for global stability.
