The Economist lists a number of steps taken by the Trump administration that confirm the US withdrawal of support for Ukraine – from withdrawing the military from the key base in Rzeszow and reducing its presence in the Ukraine Defence Contact Group (also known as the Ramstein Format) to imposing a basic 10% tariff on Ukraine (while nothing of the kind has been imposed on Russia).
Diplomats in Washington also report that some Trump aides privately say they are “fed up” with Europe’s efforts.
“As always with such a chaotic administration, it is hard to distinguish the true signal from the noise,” the newspaper notes.
