With simply two months till Donald Trump’s anticipated return to the White House, tensions are rising on a number of fronts. The Biden administration, in its last stretch, has eased restrictions on Atacms long-range missile use, authorized the supply of landmines to Ukraine, and introduced $4.7 billion in debt forgiveness for Kyiv. Meanwhile, Russia is ramping up nuclear threats. Although Washington has downplayed Ukrainian claims of Moscow’s first-ever use of intercontinental ballistic missiles, the U.S. was alarmed sufficient to briefly shut its embassy in Kyiv this week.
