First In-Depth Poll on Changing U.S. Voter Views of Ukraine War Under President Trump
43% of voters say Trump should put more pressure on Russia to end the War in Ukraine; 7% say he should pressure Ukraine instead WASHINGTON, June 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Peace Through Strength Institute (PTSI) announces the following polling results on American opinions regarding the War in Ukraine: Findings: 74% say the war in Ukraine should be a U.S. priority Only 29% think President Trump should pressure Ukraine to give up land 82% believe allowing countries take land by force sets a dangerous precedent Just 24% support letting Russia keep Crimea; 65% oppose it 84% back a bill to sanction Russia's natural resource sales 76% feel U.S. military aid to Ukraine is justified 58% say Trump should boost military aid to levels to stop Russia; 25% disagree 'This poll shows Americans overwhelmingly believe that a win in Ukraine is a win for President Trump and a win for America,' said Bill Cole, Founder of the Peace Through Strength Institute. 'It puts Russia on defense, advances our drone dominance, and strengthens U.S. leadership without sending American troops.' 'This isn't foreign aid,' Cole stated. 'It's a strategic investment.' 'Voters understand we either stop Putin now—or face a far more dangerous and expensive war later,' Cole added. Polling was conducted in late May of likely American voters by David Wolfson, Republican Pollster, and Faculty Lecturer at Columbia University's Political Analytics Graduate Program. The polling results can be viewed here and detailed polling analysis here The survey polling methodology was via SMS/MMS Text to Web with a 95% Confidence Level, 3% standard margin of error, and n=1000 completed responses. The Peace Through Strength Institute (PTSI) is a U.S.-based policy think-tank committed to aligning America's global engagement with its national interests. Military aid and foreign policy must deliver tangible results for the American people—strengthening allies, degrading threats through decisive action in an age of rising global instability.

Russia Playing the "Long Game" to Protect Energy Exports
Russia's sanctioned Arctic LNG 2 plant may soon receive its first domestically built ice-class tanker, expanding its fleet as the project anticipates potential easing of Western energy restrictions. The Zvezda shipyard in Russia's Far East is completing construction of several LNG carriers, dubbed the Alexey Kosygin series after their lead tanker, Igor Tonkovidov, chief executive officer for Russia's largest shipping company Sovcomflot, said at a conference in Murmansk. Leslie Palti-Guzman, Senior Associate with a focus on energy security at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, breaks down what she sees as the Kremlin's long-term energy export strategy once the War in Ukraine comes to and end. She also explains why the plan may create an economic conflict between US President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin. Leslie speaks with Paul Sweeney and Alix Steel on Bloomberg Radio. (Source: Bloomberg)

Governor Lamont on Trump Tariffs, Ukraine, Congestion Pricing
As Donald Trump's tariffs send markets into a tailspin, pressure is mounting on the president to speed up his main proposal for juicing the economy: a sweeping tax bill. Trump's team is starting to warn of short-term pain as they pursue a drastic overhaul of trade and public spending. In his first term, Trump slashed taxes before beginning a trade war. Now it's the other way round — and the economic backdrop looks shakier, with high interest rates squeezing the housing market, and inflation proving sticky. Above all, his second-term tariffs are both steeper and less predictable, as the on-again, off-again levies imposed on Canada and Mexico showed. Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont (D) explains how the uncertainty in Washington is affecting business in his state, and touches on a wide range of issues from the War in Ukraine to congestion pricing. Governor Lamont speaks with Tom Keene, Paul Sweeney and John Tucker on Bloomberg Radio. (Source: Bloomberg)
