In January, Trump threatened to seize Greenland from Denmark, signaling a shift in U.S. foreign policy. He ended military assistance to Ukraine and blamed its president for failed peace talks. Trump suggested Ukraine should concede territory to Russia for vague security guarantees. Meanwhile, the Pentagon considered reallocating weapons meant for Ukraine to the Middle East. Russia has benefited economically from the conflict, with the U.S. lifting sanctions on Russian oil, effectively funding Putin's war. Trump's approach has raised concerns among European leaders about the future of U.S.-led international order.
