The new US administration will have a lot of issues on the agenda in foreign policy.
If Hillary Clinton wins the election and becomes President of the USA, probably, it will retain key elements of the policies of President Barack Obama concerning Ukraine. In particular, it can continue to support Kiev, as well as the efforts of German Chancellor Angela Merkel in the Minsk process.
This was stated by former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Steven Pifer writes DT.UA.
Clinton also is likely to keep economic sanctions against Russia as long as the behavior of the Kremlin will not change, and may even take a few tougher stance against Russia.
Also, the Clinton administration depending on the circumstances, may consider the transfer of lethal military aid to Ukraine.
But if he wins the Republican candidate Donald trump, US policy may change not only on Ukraine but also NATO, if you remember all the statements by the billionaire.
“Regardless of whether U.S. President Clinton or trump, the new administration will have a lot of issues on the agenda in foreign policy. And will Ukraine be included in it, will depend on the perception of Kiev. The more zealously the government will carry out reforms and strong anti-corruption measures, the more likely that Ukraine will be among the priorities of the new administration,” he concluded.
