Trump mulls “pivot” from European conflicts to building Latin American alliances

Source: New York Post

“The Trump administration is considering cutting off additional military aid to Ukraine following Friday’s dramatic Oval Office blowup involving the president, Vice President JD Vance and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. President Trump was due to meet Monday with key officials — including national security adviser Mike Waltz and Secretary of State Marco Rubio — to discuss the prospect of letting European allies take over assisting Ukraine in its war against Russia, a source close to the White House told The Post. ‘This is going to be part of a larger pivot away from conflicts in Europe and a pivot towards building alliances in Latin America and in the Western Hemisphere,’ the source said, name-checking El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, Argentina President Javier Milei and Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado Parisca as potential beneficiaries.” (03/03/25)
