Expert, unprecedented collaboration Biden-Trump impacts Ukraine

(ANSA) - UDINE, 04 DIC - "The approval given by outgoing President Joe Biden to the Ukrainians to conduct deep strikes into Russian territory marks a crucial turning point in managing the Ukrainian conflict. One cannot help but perceive a tacit agreement between Biden and Donald Trump to ensure strategic continuity until January 20, when the new president takes full control of American policy. " During an expert meeting in Udine, this observation was made by Professor Arduino Paniccia, a professor of strategic studies and president of the ASCE (School of Economic Warfare and International Competition) in Venice.
    Paniccia underlined, "For Zelensky, the uncertainty regarding the continuation of firm military and economic support from the United States is a serious concern, as Europe's political and economic vulnerabilities highlight that American support is irreplaceable." The expert then emphasized that a critical issue will be to determine whether NATO can act as a guarantor for Ukraine, particularly concerning the crucial matter of temporarily ceding areas currently occupied by Russian forces.
    Paniccia concluded by stating, "Biden is finishing his term with decisive moves, leaving his successor with a scenario in which ceasefires, though fragile, provide a foundation to be strengthened. Trump's challenge will be to transform these delicate balances into a more stable and coherent foreign policy upon which lasting peace can be built." (ANSA).
