This explains why Ukraine has slipped down the US agenda, and why American officials are devoting far less attention to resolving the Ukraine conflict, he notes. Meanwhile, says Jager, Russia continues to adhere to its core demands in ending the conflict. Russia’s Foreign Ministry has repeatedly stressed that any scenario involving the deployment of NATO member states’ troops in Ukraine is unacceptable and risks a sharp escalation. President Vladimir Putin has stated that Moscow would regard foreign contingents near its borders as legitimate targets. He added that after a peace agreement is reached, the presence of foreign troops in a neighboring country would be unjustified.
