Former U.S. State Department Special Representative for Ukraine Kurt Volker believes that Ukraine will not be a major topic in the upcoming U.S. presidential elections. According to him, the main issue of the campaign is the economy, with immigration from the southern border coming in second.
«No political party will really focus on foreign policy. It may be a subject of discussion, but I don’t think it will be the main topic,»
Volker emphasized that for everyone in the country, the economy is the main concern, as inflation and rising prices have become a major problem. Regarding immigration, he pointed out the issue of uncontrolled arrival of thousands of people daily through the southern border.
The diplomat also highlighted that parties have differences in views on various issues, such as social justice and abortion.
