Hundreds of billions of dollars of military materiel and training have been provided to Ukraine. The newly inaugurated U.S. President, Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been vocal in his commitment to end the conflict. He famously promised to end it within 24 hours, which was later extended to 6 months. So what happens now? Bohdan Nahaylo, Chief Editor of Kyiv Post, joined TVP World to explore this question."

21 January 2025

US President Donald Trump has issued pardons or commutations nearly 1,600 people convicted or charged in connection with the US Capitol riot four years ago. Fourteen members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, two far-right groups, are among those whose sentences were commuted by the new Republican president as he took office on Monday.

"The golden age of America begins right now," Trump said in his inaugural address, adding that he will be a "peacemaker and a unifier".
