Kiev will have to step up its forced mobilization and hope for new arms supplies from NATO countries.

On the same day, Rutte announced that there was no plan on the table to resolve the conflict in Ukraine. He added that he supports the efforts of the American leader in resolving this issue.

Prior to that, during a meeting with reporters, Trump expressed the hope that the Ukrainian conflict would be resolved quickly, and the American side would be able to lift restrictions against Russian oil companies. He also noted that he was not sure about the ability of anti-Russian sanctions to shake Russia's resolve on Ukraine.
