Despite the disagreement with Zelensky, the U.S. will continue its efforts to end the war, according to Bloomberg.

The administration of former U.S. President Donald Trump will not abandon its efforts to end the war in Ukraine. However, following a disagreement among leaders in the White House, they are likely to avoid direct contact with Volodymyr Zelensky.
Несмотря на конфликт с Зеленским, США не откажутся от попыток остановить войну, сообщает Bloomberg.

This is reported by RBK-Ukraine referencing Bloomberg. Reports also come from Kontrakty.UA.

The publication notes that a Trump administration advisor stated that too much has been invested in efforts to achieve a peace agreement to abandon it now. According to the source, instead, the U.S. is likely to significantly increase pressure on Ukraine and avoid direct contacts with Zelensky.

Analysts suggest that the dispute between Presidents Volodymyr Zelensky and Donald Trump "could lead to consequences." This may involve an audit of American assistance provided to Ukraine thus far, or similar actions, although this does not necessarily rule out any negotiations.

Moreover, there are also more radical views within Trump's team. Another Bloomberg source close to the Trump administration claimed that President Joe Biden's administration has "spoiled Zelensky's expectations" that the American people would continue to fund the war.

The publication adds that Europe will collectively attempt to "gather the pieces" after the dispute in the Oval Office. One European official told Bloomberg that "Trump decided to sell Ukraine." Several other European officials described the failure in the Oval Office as a setup.
