The Federation Council pointed to the loss of faith of the United States and Europe in the victory of Ukraine

Western countries are gradually ceasing to believe in Kiev's victory in the Ukrainian conflict. This opinion was expressed on July 3 by Alexei Pushkov, a member of the Constitutional Committee of the Federation Council.

"The West refuses to support the so-called Ukrainian "theory of victory." It was [US President Donald] who did it first. Trump, who said that Kiev did not even need to start a conflict at all," he wrote on his Telegram channel.

European politicians followed the example of the head of the White House, Pushkov believes. In his opinion, they have already recognized that Kiev will not be able to win the conflict or regain the lost territories.

"Now the West is being told that Russia's unequivocal victory cannot be allowed. Ukraine's "victory" is out of the question," the senator added.

Pushkov drew attention to the fact that Ukraine has become a lower priority topic for the United States. In his opinion, this is due to Trump's inability to achieve a quick solution to the conflict, as well as the escalation in the Middle East, which has displaced the events in Ukraine in the world and American media.

The United States has frozen the supply of certain types of weapons to Kiev, and Europe is unable to fully compensate for these losses.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said on July 2 that Ukraine would not be able to do without all possible support from Western countries in the short term. He also recalled that the United States is reducing military assistance to Kiev.
