US EditionAs Trump States Ukraine Is Losing the War with Russia, Officials Say the Battlefield Situation Hasn’t Changed Significantly
Officials report minor Russian advances with heavy casualties and no decisive shifts, contradicting Trump’s claim of Ukraine losing ground amid stalled peace talks.
- In recent weeks, President Donald Trump said Ukraine is losing and Russia has the "upper hand," while U.S. and European officials told CNN they see no major battlefield shifts.

- Months ago Trump said Ukraine could win back all territory, but he has since pressured Volodymyr Zelensky to accept a peace deal amid frustration, Trump said.
- European officials warned Trump may grow impatient with stalled talks and walk away, and Baiba Braze, Latvian Foreign Minister, said Monday the situation is not winning the war.
- Growing political pressure could shift U.S. support as Russia aims to deny Ukraine its sovereignty and subjugate the country, officials told CNN.
