Donald Trump has signalled a dramatic shift in his stance on the Ukraine war, telling G7 leaders in Évian-les-Bains on Tuesday that Russia cannot win militarily and urging Moscow to strike a peace deal with Kyiv. The US president’s remarks, delivered during a trilateral meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, mark a sharp departure from his previous scepticism about Western support for Ukraine and inject fresh momentum into stalled peace talks. European diplomats described the encounter as “unexpectedly positive,” with one senior EU official telling *Politico* that Trump’s softened tone had fostered “a certain sense of optimism” among allies .
Trump’s pivot follows intense pressure from European leaders, who have sought to re-engage Washington in the conflict after months of wavering support. French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz reportedly used the summit to highlight the strategic stakes, while EU negotiators framed the Ukraine crisis as a test of transatlantic unity ahead of next month’s NATO summit in Turkey. “The Europeans have kept the enthusiasm alive by focusing on Trump’s recent Iran deal and offering logistical support in the Strait of Hormuz,” *Le Monde* reported, noting that the diplomatic outreach appears to have swayed the US president .
Zelensky, who met Trump privately for what both sides described as a “very good” discussion, told reporters that G7 leaders had concluded Vladimir Putin was not prevailing on the battlefield. “This is a turning point,” Romanian outlet *Adevărul* quoted a Ukrainian official as saying, adding that Trump’s admission that Russia cannot win militarily could force Moscow to reconsider its maximalist demands . The shift comes as Ukraine’s Western allies scramble to prevent a collapse in military aid, with Trump’s renewed focus on Ukraine coinciding with fresh warnings from Kyiv about shortages of artillery shells and air-defence systems.
The diplomatic thaw contrasts sharply with the tensions that dominated the summit’s first day, when European leaders had braced for a confrontation over Iran and Ukraine. Instead, Trump’s softened rhetoric has raised hopes of a breakthrough, though analysts caution that any peace push will hinge on whether Washington can broker a compromise acceptable to both Kyiv and Moscow. Meanwhile, the broader geopolitical landscape remains fraught, with Trump’s evolving priorities—from Ukraine to Taiwan—reshaping the global balance. A commentary in *Commonspace.eu* noted that the international community’s fixation on Ukraine since 2022 had obscured the strategic risks in the Taiwan Strait, where tensions flared during Nancy Pelosi’s 2022 visit and continue to simmer .

În schimb, la finalul primei zile complete de discuții din cadrul G7, aceștia s-au arătat neașteptat de optimiști în ceea ce privește relația lor cu Casa Albă — și ceva mai puțin îngrijorați cu privire la posibilitatea ca summitul crucial al NATO de luna viitoare, din Turcia, să dea greș, potrivit a doi diplomați de rang înalt ai UE, notează Politico.

Opinion: The future of the China-US-Russia triangle after Pelosis visit to Taiwan Since February 24, 2022, the international communitys focus was concentrated entirely on the war in Ukraine and the growing Russia – West confrontation. It seemed that nothing could change the situation until the end of hostilities in Ukraine. However, on August 2 and 3, almost everyones attention shifted from Ukraine to Taiwan. As the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, stated her intention to visit Taiwan, up to half a million people were watching the trajectory of her plane on air flight tracking sites. The negative reaction of China, including the warning of President Xi during his conversation with President Biden that those who played with fire would be perished by it, created hype around this visit. Many were discussing the possibility of Chinese military jets closing the airspace over Taiwan and preventing Pelosis plane from landing in Taiwan, while some enthusiasts were even contemplating the possibility of a US-China direct military clash. As Pelosi landed in Taiwan and met with the Taiwanese President, the global social media was full of amateur assessments about the strategic victory of the US and the confirmation of the US global hegemony. However, as the dust settles down, and information noise and manipulation eventually decreases, a more serious assessment is needed to understand the real consequences of this visit.
