Can Europe trust Trump’s vision for peace?

As peace talks between Russia and Ukraine continue, last week the
White House released its National Security Strategy. The
strategy, viewed favorably by Moscow, was
critical of the European Union and views the suppression of
far-right politicians as a threat to peace and democracy in the
region, especially in resolving the war in Ukraine. A US-brokered
peace plan would see Ukraine cede the Donbass region to Russia, a
non-starter for Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
President Trump sees it as the best way to end the bloodshed, but
the plans have also concerned European leaders. What’s the
president’s motivation for peace?





The National Security Strategy also outlined immigration as a
threat to European democracy. There were warnings that Europe
risked “civilizational erasure" if it failed to curb mass
migration. What is the tie between peace and President Trump’s
skepticism on migration?
