'No betrayal' in Trump move toward Ukraine war negotiations, Hegseth says
Fox News
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Thursday said President Donald Trump’s move toward negotiations with Russia to end the war with Ukraine was “no betrayal."
"There is no betrayal there," Hegseth told reporters. "There is a recognition that the whole world and the United States is invested and interested in peace, a negotiated peace."
Russia and Ukraine have been at war since February 2022, when Russia first invaded its neighboring nation. Trump had repeatedly said while on the campaign trail that if he was president in 2022 the war would not have broken out — vowing to end it if re-elected.
