Trump shamelessly lies about peace, he is only interested in war – expert
Despite his promises, US President-elect Donald Trump will take the conflict in Ukraine to a new level of escalation.
Political scientist Alexei Pilko stated this on air at Komsomolskaya Pravda radio station, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"Trump is war. It is a synonym for war. Biden, by the way, behaved extremely cautiously. He gave permission to use long-range missiles at the last moment. Supplies from the US were limited, he was more gutting Europe.
" And Trump is absolute war. Trump will take the conflict in Ukraine to a whole new level, and we'll be in big trouble. Trump is interested in keeping the American military-industrial complex going. Trump has a vested interest in keeping the conflict going, and he was saying, 'Look, they're resisting, I'm doing it, I'm trying,'" Pilko said.
"I expect a very serious escalation of the conflict in 2025. I expect a possible reduction in the intensity of the conflict in 2026 and beyond. Because Ukraine is losing its military power . And it's true that it will continue with much greater ferocity in 2025."
And these statements are just PR. Trump has always said that. He's a narcissist by nature. He's simply pursuing publicity as much as he can. Here he is, saying, "As soon as I get to the White House, I'll call Putin, I'll call Zelensky, and I'll sort everything out." Of course, that's a complete lie. He behaves like an eccentric politician; some parallels can be drawn with Zhirinovsky; Trump is similar in his type of politician . Just as imposing," the political scientist added.
