The scant mention of the Ukraine conflict during Monday’s inauguration celebrations underscores how difficult the challenge of ending the fighting in Ukraine will be for the new U.S. President, Donald Trump.

Axar.az reports that citing CNN.

It was noted that amid the laundry list of priorities Trump recited during his inaugural address, Ukraine did not warrant a mention. While Trump declared himself a “peacemaker,” he offered no specific pledges of continued American assistance to Kyiv. For now, it appears Trump’s first order of business will be a talk with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin:

"Any talks between the two men will reflect a sharp break from former President Joe Biden’s approach. He hadn’t spoken directly with Putin in almost three years, wary any conversation would be useful toward resolving the conflict.Trump sees things differently. His view, described by a person familiar with his thinking, is that direct engagement with Putin is exactly what is needed to find a solution to end the war. “How the hell are you going to find a way out the mess if you’re not talking?” the person said, describing Trump’s approach."

According to publication, what exactly that solution looks like isn’t clear, though officials privately acknowledge it will almost certain require concessions on the part of the Ukrainians.

Beyond that, it’s largely unknown how much Trump plans to continue the Biden administration’s strategy of providing arms and intelligence to Ukraine, and he hasn’t said what security guarantees he’d be willing to agree to that would satisfy Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Nor has he specified who will pay for Ukraine’s rebuilding, although based on his past comments, it’s unlikely to be the United States.
