US Senator Marco Rubio has stated that Donald Trump is disappointed by Vladimir Putin's refusal to make concessions in talks aimed at achieving peace in Ukraine. According to Rubio, Trump is ready to tighten sanctions and step up military aid to Ukraine if Russia remains uncooperative.
Rubio also named a potential successor to Trump: JD Vance, who may run in future elections. Vance is considered to align closely with Trump, and his attitude toward Ukraine is viewed as reserved, though he is reportedly reevaluating his stance.
The Democratic Party's ratings, meanwhile, have hit historic lows as the party faces internal challenges, including rifts between moderate and progressive factions and ongoing debate over anti-corruption policy.
The recap also covers recent strikes on targets in Russia, specifically in the Leningrad and Volgograd regions, where attacks on infrastructure caused interruptions in air travel and military logistics. Ukrainian forces continue to strike both across the border and in occupied territories.
Domestically, Ukraine's fight against corruption and the legislative efforts in parliament continue, with ongoing fundraising campaigns to support the Ukrainian military, particularly for purchasing drones and other frontline resources.
The piece ends with a call for continued national support and intensified engagement with key international partners, including the United States, to strengthen Ukraine's position.
