If the U.S. decides to 'move on' from its efforts to secure a peace deal in Ukraine, it could leave a significant power vacuum, allowing Russia to potentially increase its aggression. This could undermine European security, as Ukraine would be less supported by a key global player. Additionally, it might signal a shift in U.S. priorities towards other regions like Asia, particularly in addressing China's rise.

The U.S. and Ukraine have signed a memorandum of intent for a minerals deal, which is expected to pave the way for significant investments and infrastructure modernization. The agreement grants the U.S. access to Ukraine’s vast mineral resources, promoting long-term cooperation between the two countries.

European countries might increase their support for Ukraine to fill the potential gap left by reduced U.S. involvement. For instance, Britain has been leading efforts to bolster the Ukrainian war effort, indicating that Europe could take a more active role in supporting Ukraine's defense and diplomatic efforts.
