What would a Trump victory mean for Russia-Ukraine?

Donald Trump has said that he could quickly end the war in Ukraine if he is re-elected as US President. This Focus answers key questions on what the shape of any agreement might look like, what might happen to sanctions on Russia, and the possible macroeconomic and financial market implications of the war coming to an end for Russia, Ukraine and the global economy.

We will be hosting an online Drop-in on Thursday 25th July at 3pm BST to discuss the implications of a second Trump presidency for the war in Ukraine. Sign up here.
