Ukraine is torn between hope and disbelief after Trump's change of tack

Taking any statement made by U.S. President Donald Trump literally entails risks. The head of the world's leading power frequently changes course without any apparent explanation. This was the case on Tuesday, when he suddenly reversed his position on the conflict in Ukraine, and made his strongest defense of the latter country since he began his second term in the White House last January. The statements caused surprise among officials in the Kyiv government, which has been the victim of high-profile verbal attacks by the Republican leader in the past. Yet some degree of optimism and caution are emerging, according to Ukrainian analysts consulted by EL PAIS.
