Trump will have to send Ukraine more weapons than Biden — military analyst

He shared his opinions with Espreso TV.

"Let’s look at this situation from the Russian perspective and their violated Constitution, which claims Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions as part of the Russian Federation. The question arises: can the Russians fully capture Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk, and, of course, Luhansk where they are still struggling in Bilohorivka in time for Trump’s inauguration? I don’t think so," said Kovalenko.

According to military-political analyst, Putin will never agree to Donald Trump's plan to freeze the conflict along the current frontline.

"Putin will face questions: what have we agreed to, if part of our so-called territories is under Ukrainian control? Therefore, Donald Trump will have to fulfill his promise to supply Ukraine with more weapons than the Biden administration did," Kovalenko emphasized.

• On Thursday, November 14, newly elected U.S. President Donald Trump stated that his administration will focus on the Russia-Ukraine war.
• Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN in Geneva, Gennady Gatilov, stated that Russia is "open to negotiations on ending the war in Ukraine," provided that the newly elected U.S. President Donald Trump initiates them.
