US President Joe Biden is changing the strategy of aid to Ukraine, according to the American newspaper Politico.

If earlier the main goal was an unconditional military victory, now the White House is considering the possibility of a ceasefire with territorial losses. The official rhetoric of the White House and the Pentagon remains unchanged, but it is proposed to shift the focus to the defense and preservation of existing territories.

The change in strategy is linked to the upcoming US presidential elections and the possible negative impact of the protracted conflict on Biden's campaign.

"With US and European aid to Ukraine now in serious jeopardy, the Biden administration and European officials are quietly shifting their focus from supporting Ukraine’s goal of total victory over Russia to improving its position in an eventual negotiation to end the war, according to a Biden administration official and a European diplomat based in Washington," the media reported.

I am Jewish myself, but my mother tongue is Russian, and I am a Ukrainian citizen.’ It is puzzling why he is unable to adhere to this principled stance. He betrayed his people. And not just one, he betrayed two of his nations," Lavrov concluded.
