Kallas expects concrete actions from Trump

As the EU's chief diplomat noted, it was White House President Donald Trump who took responsibility for stopping Russia and the bloodshed.

He was the one who promised to stop the killings. So this (helping Ukraine stop the war. — ed.) cannot be up to us alone.

This rebuke was voiced as Ukraine and its allies tried to understand the significance of Trump's abrupt change of position on the Russia-Ukraine war.

As mentioned earlier, the US president wrote that Ukraine is "capable of fighting and regaining all of its territory within its original borders."

He believes this will happen with the support of the EU and NATO.

While many European officials have welcomed the more accommodating tone toward Ukraine, some believe Trump may be hinting at an intention to reduce U.S. involvement and abdicate responsibility.

"NATO does not exist without the United States. America is the largest ally in NATO. So when it comes to what NATO should do, it also means what America should do," Kallas added.
