A diplomat says President Trump is pressuring Ukraine, not Russia, to end the war. The official claims Trump sees Ukraine as the weaker side and believes it can be pushed to surrender.
According to the diplomat, Trump is using military aid and intelligence sharing as leverage over Kyiv. These are tools Ukraine depends on to defend itself.
The diplomat says Trump is not applying the same pressure to Moscow. The source did not explain why Russia is being treated differently.
