Trump 'frustrated' by inability to broker end to Russia's war against Ukraine, WSJ reports

Donald Trump has expressed frustration in early 2025 over his failure to broker an end to the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas wars.
His frustration follows his repeated campaign promises to resolve these conflicts quickly and his public blame of the Biden administration for their continuation.
Trump's administration faces internal disagreements over Israeli military policy and resistance from Gulf leaders due to the Gaza conflict complicates diplomacy.
On May 8, 2025, Saudi Arabia committed $600 billion and the UAE pledged $1.4 trillion in investments, while Trump urged a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine without conditions.
These challenges suggest Trump’s key Middle East and Ukraine policy goals remain unmet, complicating efforts for significant diplomatic achievements in his second term.
