Roundtable Discussion: Will Trump end the Russia-Ukraine War?

Roundtable Discussion: Will Trump end the Russia-Ukraine War?

Usanas Foundation is organising a Roundtable Discussion titled "Will Trump end the Russia-Ukraine War?" The discussion is scheduled for 10th December 2024 at 05:00 PM IST.

The recent surge in the Russia-Ukraine conflict could significantly impact the incoming Trump administration. In a decisive move, the US is set to deliver an additional $725 million in military aid to Ukraine, featuring advanced counter-drone systems and munitions for its High Mobility Artillery Rocket System. This suggests a strategic shift, potentially allowing for longer-range strikes deep into Russian territory. In response, the Biden administration is providing Ukraine with the means to target Russian locations, prompting retaliatory strikes on Kyiv using ICBMs, further escalating tensions. As the Biden administration intensifies its support for Ukraine, NATO is bracing for Trump's approach, who has vowed to halt aid to both Ukraine and NATO. Meanwhile, Putin has upgraded Russia’s nuclear doctrine, adding another layer of complexity to this delicate situation. This discussion will explore the feasibility of achieving peace, the possible repercussions of continued conflict, and examine how India can contribute positively in navigating these escalating tensions.
