When the world watches international politics, especially in the context of relations between the USA, Russia, Iran, and the Middle East, all eyes are on US President Donald Trump.
Israeli analyst Arkady Mil-Man in his interview for RBC-Ukraine on April 11, 2024, detailed the “declining interest” of Trump in Ukraine and Israel.
According to Mil-Man, the USA is gradually losing strategic activity on Ukraine issues, and attention to diplomatic efforts to return Israeli hostages from Hamas captivity is also declining. Moreover, this weakening of the American position may influence global political processes.
Trump and his diplomacy: the loss of interest in Ukraine and Israel?
In recent weeks, it has become clear that Donald Trump’s attention to Ukraine issues has significantly decreased. Previously intense negotiations with Russia and Ukraine about ending the war and achieving a ceasefire have become less frequent. Instead, Trump has focused on other international issues, such as the nuclear threat from Iran and trade wars.
Quote from Arkady Mil-Man:
“There is a noticeable decrease in Trump’s attention to negotiations on ending the war between Russia and Ukraine. In recent days, we have seen a sharp decline in active actions.”
The decrease in activity, according to Mil-Man, is related to Trump’s psychology, being prone to quickly losing interest in important topics. This trait can be used by US adversaries, such as Russia and Iran.
Lack of progress on the release of Israeli hostages
Special attention in the interview was given by Mil-Man to the issue of Israeli hostages in Hamas captivity. Not long ago, Trump stated that “the gates of hell will open” if all Israeli hostages are not released, but according to the analyst, this issue has disappeared from the American administration’s agenda.
“We do not see any serious activity on this issue, and that is truly sad,” — Mil-Man notes.
US negotiations with Iran and the nuclear threat
On April 12, 2025, important negotiations between the USA and Iran regarding the nuclear program are expected to take place in Oman. This event has attracted the attention of the international community, as Iran is on the brink of obtaining nuclear weapons. Israel, in turn, fears that a nuclear Iran will create new threats to its security.
Mil-Man emphasizes that Trump and his administration may use this moment to solve the problem of nuclear Iran, but there is also a risk that the negotiations will be delayed and ineffective.
Why is it important for Ukraine and Israel to maintain support from the USA?
For Ukraine and Israel, maintaining active attention from the USA is extremely important. This not only affects global security but also the possibility of a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Ukraine and protection from threats in the Middle East.
NAnews – News of Israel, monitoring the developments, notes that the decrease in Trump’s interest in these issues may affect the stability of diplomatic efforts in these countries. Israel and Ukraine now need to find new ways to interact with global players so as not to fall into the shadows of global politics.
Israeli analyst Arkady Mil-Man has voiced alarming forecasts regarding the future role of the USA on the world stage. According to him, everything depends on how the USA will act in the near future, as their decisions will affect a lot, including security and stability in the Middle East and Eastern Europe.
