At the Washington summit, Donald Trump didn’t just attend — he dominated, humiliated, and exposed Europe’s weakness on the world stage. Russian analyst Fyodor Lukyanov declares that the EU no longer acts as an independent power but as Washington’s obedient puppet, bowing to Trump’s moods and accepting America’s dictates. According to Lukyanov, the EU’s leaders now flatter the U.S. president, hoping praise will buy influence, but instead they only confirm their subservience. The summit wasn’t really about Ukraine but about showcasing Europe’s reliance on American approval. While nations like China, India, and Brazil resist U.S. pressure, Europe folds without a fight. Lukyanov warns this isn’t just Trump’s personality but a structural decline in Europe’s autonomy. Once able to assert its own interests, the EU has now lost the courage to define them. For Russia, he argues, the EU has become irrelevant — a bloc with illusions but no real power.

Russia unleashed a massive overnight drone and missile assault on western Ukraine on Aug. 21, killing at least one civilian and injuring 14, in a brazen attack that came just days after peace talks in Washington. Explosions rocked cities far from the front line, including Lviv, Lutsk, Rivne, and Mukachevo, where a major electronics plant employing 800 people was set ablaze. Twelve civilians were hospitalized in Mukachevo alone. Air raid sirens sounded across Ukraine as Russian MiG-31 jets capable of firing Kinzhal missiles took off, triggering panic. Air defenses intercepted several drones, but multiple strikes caused fires and extensive damage to homes and infrastructure. The attack highlights Russia’s continued bombardment of civilians even as President Zelensky and former U.S. President Donald Trump publicly discuss peace. Since Trump’s Aug. 15 meeting with Putin, Russian strikes have already killed 31 civilians and injured 145 more.

Russian allies Belarus and Iran agree to boost defence as part of raft of agreements
Lukashenka, a close ally of President Vladimir Putin, allowed Russia to use Belarusian territory as a staging ground for Moscow’ full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 and later allowed the deployment of Russian tactical nuclear missiles.

The United States has signaled a dramatic shift in its Ukraine policy, with Politico reporting that Washington plans to play only a minimal role in Kyiv’s long-term security guarantees. U.S. Defense Policy Undersecretary Elbridge Colby told European counterparts during Aug. 19 talks that the burden of ensuring Ukraine’s safety will fall on Europe, not America. The news follows President Donald Trump’s high-profile meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House. Despite Trump boasting of progress in peace negotiations, he made clear that U.S. troops will not be deployed in Ukraine to uphold any deal. European leaders, alarmed by the prospect of carrying the bulk of responsibility, fear being left “back to spring’s coalition of the willing.” As NATO prepares for further discussions, Trump has floated a trilateral summit with Putin and Zelensky to seal a potential settlement.
