UNITED NATIONS >> President Donald Trump shifted his rhetoric about the war in Ukraine today, saying he believes Ukraine can win back all of the territory Russia has taken since its invasion, although he gave no indication of how that would affect U.S. policy.
Last month, President Trump said Ukraine needed to be open to giving up some of its territory in peace talks with Russia. But those talks haven't happened. Now, he says Ukraine could win it all back.
US President Donald Trump said that with "time, patience, and the financial support of Europe and, in particular, NATO," Ukraine could regain its territory from Russia, who he said had been fighting "aimlessly."
In a significant change, President Trump now believes Ukraine can win back all its territory from Russia, a shift announced after meeting with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy.

President Donald Trump said Ukraine has the ability to reclaim all of its territory from Russia with the backing of NATO and European allies, describing Moscow’s war effort as faltering more than three years into the conflict.
Trump’s sudden pledge that Ukraine can reclaim all occupied land is less a policy than a gamble—one that only matters if he backs it with steel, not slogans.
