Will Donald Trump face a Richard Nixon-like moment with an unwinnable Ukraine war? Former adviser and MAGA torchbearer Steve Bannon warns his ex-boss

Former chief strategist for US President Donald Trump has eventually issued a stark warning about the potential for the ongoing Ukraine conflict to become ‘Trump's Vietnam’, reported Fox News.

According to Fox News, in a recent interview, Steve Bannon urged US President Donald Trump to announce an immediate end to US military aid to Ukraine during his Inauguration Day speech. Adding onto that, he also expressed his severe concern that Donald Trump could be ensnared by the US defense industry and European allies advocating for continued support.

Steve Bannon also put an emphasis on the fact that further delays in resolving the conflict could lead to deeper US involvement in a war that he believes cannot be won and runs totally counter to US interests. Moreover, he also criticized retired General Keith Kellogg who is expected to be US President Donald Trump's special envoy to Ukraine for actually promoting the ongoing aid while negotiations are underway, asserted Fox News.


The recent remarks by Steve Bannon actually reflect his broader skepticism about NATO and European defense capabilities while suggesting that Europe has relied on US support without adequately investing in its own military readiness, noted Fox News. He also characterized Russian President Vladimir Putin as a significant threat but downplayed the urgency of the situation in Ukraine while arguing that European leaders do not view Russia as a real danger.

At the same time, Steve Bannon also criticized prominent European leaders for their handling of the conflict while labeling former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson a ‘war criminal’ and then asserting that the Ukraine war has been mishandled by all the Western powers whatsoever.
