President Donald Trump has made a shocking move by dismantling the U.S. Justice Department’s task force that targeted Russian oligarchs and enforced sanctions against the Kremlin’s elite. The decision, which comes as part of a shift in focus to combating drug cartels and international gangs, has sparked outrage from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The now-disbanded Task Force KleptoCapture was originally established to weaken Russian financial networks following Moscow’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Critics argue that Trump’s action benefits Putin and undermines efforts to hold Russian elites accountable. Stay tuned for reactions and geopolitical implications.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed regret over his country’s decision to relinquish its nuclear weapons in an interview, stating that Ukraine's lack of nuclear deterrence has left it vulnerable. Zelensky criticized the U.S., the U.K., and other security guarantors for failing to uphold their promises under the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, which assured Ukraine’s security in exchange for giving up its nuclear arsenal. He used strong language to express his frustration, stating that the guarantors "didn’t give a f**k" about Ukraine's sovereignty or security. Zelensky further reflected on the collapse of the Soviet Union, when Ukraine inherited a significant nuclear stockpile, only to give it up in exchange for security assurances that, according to him, were never honored. He emphasized that if Ukraine had retained its nuclear capabilities, it would have been in a stronger position to deter Russia's aggression.
