Does the answer to ending the Ukraine War sit with the United States?

Published

As the war in Ukraine enters week eight, many political analysts and politicians around the world are speculating how it may end (if it ends at all)

The war in Ukraine is entering week eight and the aggression by Russia only seems to be intensifying, despite the massive amounts of troops lost in battle.

Word on the street is that the Kremlin is no longer just wanting to take the country, but “eliminate” all of its people, with civilians caught in the attacks and the number of innocent lives lost entering their thousands.

Russia wants to “Eliminate all Ukrainians” – Zlata Kolesnyk says

Last week, a mass casualty event on a Ukrainian train station was one of the biggest attacks on civilians by Russian forces yet. Over 50 people, including young children, died.

Despite news that Kremlin forces are withdrawing from key parts of Ukraine, they seem to be moving towards other parts of the country, to amass their destruction.

So when will it end, and more importantly, how?

It’s the question that many have been asking and wanting answers to. When will Vladimir Putin back down?

Professor Yanis Varoufakis, a professor in politics and the Former Greek Minister of Finance, says the answers to a resolution may sit with the United States and Joe Biden’s administration.

Speaking exclusively to Ticker News, Varoufakis says what just might be needed amongst all of this aggression is a summit, hosted by the U.S, which may provide some kind of opportunity for a ceasefire and “bring Ukraine back to where it was before Feb 24”

Varoufakis revealed if the conflict is not resolved soon, then a “permanent Afghanistan-like situation” is likely. Meaning Ukraine will be a war zone for the greater future, a battleground between a Democracy and Soviet Union.

Russia’s war crimes

The Kremlin continues to be investigated for its war crimes. Germany’s foreign minister has stated that there are “massive indications of war crimes” committed within Ukraine, by Kremlin forces.

“In the end, the courts will have to decide, but for us, it is central to secure all evidence,” Annalena Baerbock told reporters before a meeting with fellow European Union ministers in Luxembourg.

Despite nine evacuation corridors agreed to between Ukraine and Russia, there continues to be a high level of risk for those trying to flee the war-torn nation.

Ukraine’s deputy prime minister says that Kyiv is aiming to evacuate civilians from several regions in and around the country’s south and east via these humanitarian corridors. Despite any risks, the deputy PM stated that such corridors had been agreed to by the two countries and it is up to Russia to keep their word and allow the evacuation of the innocent.

Trump confirms U.S. strike on Iran’s nuclear sites amid rising tensions; Israel intensifies operations, Iran vows to continue enrichment, and Houthi militants threaten U.S. shipping.


President Trump has confirmed that U.S. forces successfully struck three nuclear facilities in Iran – Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan – with all aircraft safely exiting Iranian airspace. The mission, involving B-2 stealth bombers, comes amid rising tensions over Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

Meanwhile, Israel has intensified its military operations, killing three top Iranian military leaders and striking a major nuclear facility in Isfahan. The Israeli chief of staff warned the operation may lead to a prolonged and complex war.

Iran responded by vowing to continue uranium enrichment and said talks with the U.S. are off the table unless Israel halts its attacks. In a parallel move, Houthi militants threatened U.S. and commercial ships in the Red Sea if American strikes continue in support of Israel.

Adding to the volatility, an Iranian drone hit northern Israel, with the IDF confirming the incident—though no casualties were reported. The U.S. State Department is now organising flights to evacuate Americans from Israel.

Trump announces successful U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, while Israel intensifies its military campaign against Iranian leadership.

In Short:
President Trump announced U.S. strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran, confirming all aircraft left Iranian airspace after the operation. Meanwhile, Israel ramped up its military actions against Iran, leading to warnings from Iranian officials and Houthi militants regarding potential escalations.

President Trump announced on Saturday that the United States had successfully completed strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran: Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.

In a social media post, he confirmed all U.S. aircraft had exited Iranian airspace following the operation.

This military action was preceded by the deployment of stealth B-2 bombers from Missouri, capable of carrying the GBU-57 bunker buster, a powerful weapon considered effective against the Fordow uranium-enrichment facility.

Trump had earlier indicated to senior aides that he approved attack plans for Iran, awaiting Tehran’s decision on its nuclear program.

Meanwhile, Israel’s military intensified its operations against Iranian military leaders and nuclear sites, announcing the elimination of three senior Iranian figures and strikes on the Isfahan facility. Israel’s military chief warned of a potentially prolonged conflict, describing it as the nation’s most complex military undertaking.

In response, Iranian officials stated their refusal to halt uranium enrichment and indicated that negotiations with the U.S. would only occur if Israel ceased its attacks.

Additionally, the U.S. State Department announced the initiation of flights to facilitate the return of American citizens from Israel.

Houthi militants also issued a warning to target U.S. and commercial vessels in the Red Sea should American attacks in support of Israel commence.

Amidst this, an Iranian drone attack recently damaged a building in northern Israel, marking an acknowledged drone strike by the Israeli military during the ongoing conflict. No casualties were reported from the incident.
