US EditionIn first 100 days, Trump struggles to make good on promises to quickly end Ukraine and Gaza wars
- In his first 100 days of a second term in 2025, President Donald Trump has pursued efforts to end the wars in Ukraine and Gaza through diplomatic negotiations.
- This push follows a backdrop of ongoing conflict marked by the 2023 Hamas attack that triggered the Gaza war and the three-year war in Ukraine, with Trump blaming Hamas and attributing delays to Vladimir Putin's harsh tactics.
- Before the ceasefire in Gaza broke down in March 2025, the Trump administration negotiated a temporary truce, facilitated the release of hostages, engaged in negotiations with Iran concerning its nuclear ambitions, and urged Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to permit humanitarian aid into Gaza.
- Trump expressed confidence that a deal will be reached soon, stating, “I think a deal is going to be made there” and “That's going to happen pretty soon.” A spokesperson from the White House’s National Security Council also emphasized that Trump remains dedicated to achieving a resolution and is reportedly closer to securing peace on this issue than at any time during President Biden’s administration.
- Despite these efforts, conditions in Gaza remain dire, fighting resumed after the truce collapsed, hostages remain unrecovered, and analysts suggest Trump's rapid foreign policy overhaul faces limits in bringing swift peace.
