According to EU diplomats, Washington's attention shifted from the peace process in Ukraine to the conflict in the Middle East. This has affected the negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, as well as the supply of American weapons.
Negotiations between Ukraine and Russia are on hold
According to EU diplomats, the conflict in the Middle East has diverted Washington's attention from ending Russia's war against Ukraine. As a result, negotiations between Ukraine and Russia have effectively been put on hold.
Sources say that Trump is losing interest in the peace process because of the events related to Iran. This creates new challenges for the diplomatic settlement of the situation.
Arms supplies and the West's position
European countries have been informed of possible delays in the delivery of US weapons. The reason for this is the priority given by the US to its partners in the Middle East.
Diplomats also note that the situation is in Russia's favour: Oil prices are rising, and Western pressure on Moscow is easing.
