On Tuesday, former U.S. President Donald Trump told PBS NewsHour that it was time for Ukraine to agree to a deal with Russia. The former president made the remarks during an interview with the public‑broadcasting network, adding his perspective on the ongoing conflict between Kyiv and Moscow.
Trump said, “It’s time” for Ukraine to reach an agreement with Russia. He framed the comment as a call for a diplomatic resolution to the war that has raged in eastern Ukraine since 2014.
In the interview, Trump highlighted his view that the United States has been providing aid to Ukraine for years. He suggested that the U.S. should consider the possibility of a negotiated settlement rather than continuing to supply military assistance.
Ukraine has been fighting Russian-backed separatists in its eastern regions, and the conflict has drawn international attention and support from Western allies. Trump’s remarks come amid ongoing discussions about the future of U.S. involvement in the region.
The statement was made in the context of a broader debate over how best to address the Ukraine crisis. Trump’s comments add to the range of opinions expressed by former officials and commentators on the path forward for Kyiv and its allies.
