Trump’s Deal With Russia Inflames War He Vowed to Swiftly End

This story is from the archive. It was covered between 15 October 2026 and 15 October 2026, and nothing below has been updated since. See what is happening now.

The Ukrainian president’s defiant decision to continue attacking Russian refineries underscores President Trump’s inability to end a war he had promised to resolve.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets center Trump’s deal with Russia, but they frame it differently. The New York Times treats the agreement as evidence of a failed promise to quickly end the war, and its extract is the only one that mentions Ukraine’s president and attacks on Russian refineries. The Hill stays more interpretive and open-ended, asking what the deal actually means rather than asserting a narrative.
