Donald Trump, the U.S. President-elect, has declared that resolving the conflict in Ukraine will be his top priority upon taking office. In an interview with Paris Match, Trump emphasized the need to address the 'Ukraine problem with Russia,' stating that while the Middle East is also a significant concern, the Ukrainian issue is more complex and thus a higher priority. Trump also mentioned that Syrians would need to resolve their own crisis, indicating a policy of non-intervention in that region.
