Almost two and a half years have passed since the war between Russia and Ukraine. In these two and a half years, Russia has carried out hundreds of attacks on Ukraine through dangerous missiles and attack drones. According to Ukrainian data, Russia fired more missiles at Ukraine last month in October 2025 than in any other month since the beginning of 2023.

The destruction of the Ukrainian energy grid caused widespread blackouts across Ukraine, affecting thousands of people in the country. Moscow has targeted Ukraine’s power grid for four winters. At the same time, Kiev and its supporters have termed the attack by Russia as a deliberate and condemnable strategy to weaken the civilian population of Ukraine.

President Trump Angry Over Vladimir Putin: Former US President Donald Trump recently expressed deep resentment to Russia leader Vladimir Putin. According to the NBC report, Trump expressed displeasure over the comments made by Putin over the Ukraine struggle. This reflects a major change in Trump’s stance, which till now had a positive attitude towards Putin.

According to the NBC report, Trump himself called him and expressed his displeasure. Especially when Putin spoke of new leadership in Ukraine. This is notable because Trump also questioned the leadership capacity of Jailonsky earlier.

Trump’s warning of secondary tariff on Russian oil
During this conversation, Trump warned that if the US and Russia fail to make any compromise to stop the bloodshed in Ukraine, they will impose secondary tariffs on the oil coming from Russia. Trump said, “If this is Russia’s fault, then I will put a secondary tariff on the oil coming from Russia.” This secondary tariffs will also apply to countries that will buy oil from Russia, which can prevent their business with America.

Trump also said that the rate of this tariff will be 25 to 50 percent, which will affect the trade of Russian oil badly. This resentment of Trump has recently come after Putin rejected the US-Ukrainian plan of the 30-day ceasefire. Putin had suggested the removal of Jailonsky from the post, which made Trump more angry.

Trump-Putin Relations and Changing Equation
However, Trump also expressed anger over Putin and said that he has very good relations with Putin. Trump said that if Putin does the right thing, then his anger may soon end. In the recent few days, Trump has threatened to end Ukraine’s support, which has further strengthened Russia’s invasion. However, Trump’s current statement indicates that his attitude may change.

Increasing violence in Russia-Ukraine conflict
There has been no decrease in conflict between Ukraine and Russia. Ukrainian officials have alleged that Russia is just wasting time in the conversation and has no intention of stopping the attack. After new attacks on Kharakiv, Ukraine has accused of increasing the attacks on Russia. According to Ukrainian officials, from Saturday to Sunday night, there were at least six attacks in Kharkiv, in which a hospital personnel were injured and two people were killed in a residential building.

Nato zelensky ukraine security policy: During the Ukraine War, Western countries have always supported President Volodimir Jailnsky with their military and diplomatic aid, but recently some major NATO countries have rethink their strategy to send soldiers to Ukraine.

According to Reuters, this change will not only affect Ukraine’s safety, but can also have an impact on relations with European politics and Russia. European officials were considering several options to strengthen Ukraine’s security, including sending ground soldiers. But now they are withdrawing from this idea. There are many reasons for this:

Political disagreement of European countries
Many European countries are afraid that if they send soldiers to Ukraine, this decision may give rise to a direct confrontation with Russia. Many countries already have limited military budget and cannot gather additional resources for war. America is currently changing its foreign policy, due to which Europe has to change its strategy. According to an European diplomat, “When Ukraine’s position was strong, the idea of ​​sending soldiers was attractive, but now the circumstances have changed.”

Security guarantee to Ukraine: What will be the next step of NATO?
NATO is now focusing on alternative measures as future safety guarantee for Ukraine. Such as: After the ceasefire, sea and air monitoring will be increased to monitor Russia’s activities. NATO soldiers will not join the war directly, but they will work to increase their military capabilities by training Ukrainian soldiers. European soldiers can remain deployed in border areas, so that any possible attack can be prevented.

Please tell that military officials of France and Britain are working on this strategy. Recently, Britain’s Prime Minister Kir Starmer said, “We are focusing on ensuring safety of sky, sea and borders in Ukraine.”

Russia’s response: What will increase stress?
Russia has already made it clear that it will not accept the deployment of NATO soldiers. If NATO retreats from its decision, Russia can consider it as its diplomatic victory. The Russian government believes that the main reason for this decision of European countries is their internal political and economic problems. At the same time, US President Donald Trump has also made different statements about the deployment of NATO soldiers in Ukraine, which has made the situation more complicated.

Will NATo leave Ukraine alone?
NATO may have changed the plan to send soldiers, but this does not mean that he will stop supporting Ukraine. The supply of weapons and drone technology will continue. Russia can be imposed new economic sanctions, western countries will continue to support Ukraine on international forums. Ukraine’s President Jailonsci has not given any comment on this new development, but his administration officials have clarified that Ukraine requires a permanent security guarantee.
