Ukraine Anticipates Trump’s Presidency: Hope for Peace, Concern Over Terms

As Donald Trump prepares to return to the White House, Ukrainians express their desire for peace but remain cautious about the conditions that could accompany it.


Amid anticipation for Donald Trump's leadership, Ukrainians yearn for a peaceful resolution to the ongoing conflict with Russia, stressing that any agreement must honor their sacrifices and ensure their country's sovereignty.


As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to resume his role in the White House, many in Ukraine are cautiously hopeful for a potential resolution to the ongoing conflict with Russia. Amid widespread suffering and loss throughout the war, locals like Valeria, a 30-year-old English teacher from eastern Ukraine, express a profound desire for peace but insist it must not come at any cost.

With Trump promising to engage with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Ukrainians find themselves at a crossroads where their hopes for peace collide with the need for justice. Popular sentiment is that any cease-fire or negotiations must honor the sacrifices endured by the people, as noted by Valeria, who requested anonymity due to safety concerns for her family still under Russian occupation.

In conversations spanning from front-line soldiers to civilians far from combat, many articulate a shared desire for integrity in any peace deal. They stress that the objectives of negotiations must safeguard Ukraine's independence and future security, echoing a sentiment of exhaustion from the ongoing struggle.

The forthcoming months will likely reveal the administration's approach and the international community's role in facilitating a resolution to this protracted conflict. As Ukrainians eagerly anticipate the return of Trump, a dual narrative of hope and caution prevails, indicating a population weary yet resilient in its quest for justice and peace.
