Zelenskyy's visit to the United States was expected to receive much-needed aid funds from Ukraine to deal with the ongoing tensions with Russia. However, Biden** only provided $200 million in aid, far less than Ukraine had expected, which overshadowed Zelenskyy's visit. Under the pressure of domestic political struggles, it is difficult for Biden to smoothly allocate the promised $60 billion in aid funds to Ukraine. Despite this, we can still see Biden's sincerity and efforts, and by using his power, he has won the $200 million for Ukraine.
However, $200 million is far from enough for Ukraine. Ukraine quickly adjusted its strategy, and Zelensky came up with an interesting idea to be able to use $300 billion in Russian assets previously frozen by the United States to defend against the Russian threat. Despite the irony of this idea, Zelenskyy said during his meeting with Biden that the United States should quickly dispose of frozen assets and use the money to protect Ukraine from Russian terror. Although Biden did not give a clear response, Zelensky once again emphasized the details of the use of the funds, expressing his determination to maintain the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
In the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, we can clearly feel Putin's tough attitude and the changes in the Russian army. In the past, many people have held a cynical attitude towards the Russian army's war operations, believing that they lack restraint. However, the current situation shows Putin's thoughtfulness and the fighting spirit of the Russian army. Chechen Kadyrov is full of appreciation for Putin's military action, believing that Putin is thoughtful, maintains restraint, and just wants to play a powerful momentum.
However, the attitude of the Russian army has obviously changed in the full-scale ** that began in October. Putin is determined to make the Russian army intensify its efforts and, at the cost of sacrifices, further counterattack the enemy. At the same time, the Russian army has also carried out frequent attacks on the rear of Ukraine, such as Kyiv being attacked by 10 long-range missiles, and Ukraine's energy facilities have also been seriously damaged. This suggests that the Russian army is accumulating strength and is preparing for a larger war during the coming cold winter.
For Zelensky, poor U.S. aid and Russia's hardline attitude have put him in a difficult position. Economically, Ukraine desperately needs more aid funds to sustain the expenses needed for the war. At the same time, Russia's military operations and attacks pose a huge threat to Ukraine, making it even more necessary for Ukraine** to need strong support. However, Zelensky's attempt to find alternative aid funding does not seem to be promising at the moment. For Zelensky, the challenges ahead remain daunting.
To sum up, the death of Zelensky's visit to the United States has made Ukraine face an even more difficult situation. Biden's efforts, although limited, have at least expressed some sincerity. Under the tough attitude of the Russian army, the prospects for Ukraine remain difficult. As a personal reflection and summary, the international community should increase its support for Ukraine and work together to create a peaceful future for Ukraine. Only the concerted efforts of the international community can achieve an important breakthrough in lasting peace in the war in Ukraine.
