Negotiations aimed at resolving the Ukrainian conflict have stalled, with sources pointing to a shift in U.S. priorities. According to high-ranking European officials, President Donald Trump has begun to lose interest in these talks. One of the key factors behind this change is Washington’s military involvement in the conflict with Tehran, which has diverted U.S. attention away from Ukraine. Sources indicate that the negotiations between Kyiv and Moscow, facilitated by Washington, are now in a «dangerous zone» due to the shifting focus of the U. S. One European diplomat described this shift in U.S. attention as a «catastrophe» for both the European Union and Ukraine. European leaders have been informed of delays in U.S. arms shipments, particularly air defense systems, as a result of the change in Washington’s priorities. This shift, the sources suggest, could have serious consequences for Ukraine, as competition for resources between the Middle East and Ukraine intensifies. Earlier, Dmitry Peskov, press secretary for the President of Russia, confirmed that there has been a pause in the Ukrainian negotiations due to the new focus of the U. S. However, he emphasized that Moscow is not concerned that Washington may completely disengage from the talks due to the ongoing conflict with Tehran.
