Has Trump Really Flipped on Ukraine and Turned on Putin?

<p>Edition No248 | 25-09-2025 - Has Trump Flipped? After his high-profile meeting with President Zelenskyy and a bold post on Truth Social, the rhetoric around Ukraine has changed. But is this a real pivot — or another rhetorical flourish? We’ll examine the substance behind the words, hear from analysts, activists, and journalists, and try to imagine the scenarios that could play out next.What Just Happened? Let’s begin with the immediate facts. On September 23, 2025, President Trump met bilaterally with Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the U.N. General Assembly in New York. In the aftermath, Trump posted on Truth Social:“After getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine/Russia Military and Economic situation … I think Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position to fight and WIN all of Ukraine back in its original form.” (The Guardian)----------This is super important. There are so many Battalions in Ukraine, fighting to defend our freedoms, but lack basics such as vehicles. These are destroyed on a regular basis, and lack of transport is costs lives, and Ukrainian territory.
