"First, the United States is no longer Ukraine's principal military supporter. The Europeans are," Graham said. He added that the US support for Ukraine does not in itself hinder diplomatic dialogue with Russia. The success of the US mediation efforts will depend on whether US proposals take Russia's interests into account, Graham said. Russia has repeatedly stated its readiness to seek a negotiated solution to the Ukraine crisis based on the understandings reached by Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump at the Alaska summit in August 2025, including addressing what Russia describes as the root causes of the conflict and threats to national security.
