During an Oval Office meeting on August 18, 2025, Donald Trump displayed a Ukraine war map highlighting territories under Russian control — a move Russia’s Foreign Ministry called a “strong slap” for President Zelensky. The map served as a public reminder of Ukraine’s battlefield losses, undermining Zelensky’s narrative of strength before European allies. For Russia, the display was hailed as a diplomatic win, reinforcing Putin’s territorial claims. For Europe, it raised fears that U.S. priorities are shifting toward Moscow, pressuring Kyiv toward concessions. <br /> <br />#Trump #Zelensky #UkraineWar #Russia #WhiteHouse #Geopolitics #UkraineConflict #Putin #USPolitics #TrumpMap #UkraineRussia #WarMap #Diplomacy #Europe #TrumpUkraine #GeopoliticalShift #OvalOffice #ForeignPolicy #UkraineCrisis #Territory #Negotiations #TrumpNews #RussianMFA #BreakingNews #UkraineUpdate #TrumpVsZelensky #RussiaUkraineWar #GlobalPolitics #WarReality #TrumpSignal #USRussia
