Part 9/10:
Potential Changes in US Administration Impacting the Conflict
With the upcoming presidential elections in the United States, questions arise regarding potential shifts in US policy towards Ukraine and its conflict with Russia. Barrett anticipates a slight change, mainly in how the new administration may approach negotiations or provide support. However, he emphasizes that the fundamental issues surrounding negotiations, ceasefires, and security guarantees for Ukraine will remain challenging.
Despite these speculations, the eventual outcome of the conflict—and the process of reaching any ceasefire—will likely involve multiple international actors beyond the United States. Countries like China, India, and Brazil may also play crucial roles in shaping the future of negotiations.
