Once he calls the shots, no one can do anything but obey him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\">Ukraine offers public praise<\/h2>\n<p class=\"\">Ukraine sought to project a similar lack of concern over how the result might transform America\u2019s approach to the war in Europe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Trump said he would be able to resolve Russia\u2019s invasion before he even takes office, which would surely require huge concessions that Kyiv deems unacceptable.
