Donald Trump's team has distanced itself from comments made by strategist Bryan Lanza regarding the White House's stance on the Ukraine war, emphasizing peace over territory. Lanza suggested that restoring Crimea is not a priority, which was contested by Trump's spokesperson. Trump has previously claimed he could end the war quickly but has not ruled out territorial concessions. Ukraine's President Zelenskyy insists on the return of all annexed territories for peace. Russia is open to Trump's proposals, while Ukraine is ready to cooperate with the incoming administration. Trump has criticized US military aid to Ukraine and threatened to end it if re-elected.
