Summary
A YouGov poll in five Western European countries found majorities view Donald Trump as a threat to European peace, with concerns rising after he suspended military aid to Ukraine.
Most respondents oppose Kyiv’s exclusion from U.S.-Russia peace talks and doubt Europe alone could support Ukraine.
Support for increased defense spending remains limited, despite fears that Russia could attack again.
Proposals for European peacekeepers in Ukraine have mixed support. The survey highlights growing skepticism about U.S. commitments to NATO and European security.
Absolutely wild equivocations made here. “One could argue” Yes, one could argue that invading another country could violate a peace treaty… I hope you’re trolling and not really this cooked.

It was not “explicitly prohibited” by the agreement. Stop spreading misinformation. This is a quick read to find out how obviously wrong you are.
Your language alone is suspicious. “Budapest Memorandum WAS made null and void” for something that wasn’t disallowed by the agreement. Meanwhile, “One can argue that Russian actions (passive language) on 2014” for something that was EXPLICITLY forbidden.
Yes it was,
“Refrain from economic coercion designed to subordinate to their own interest the exercise by Ukraine, the Republic of Belarus and Kazakhstan of the rights inherent in its sovereignty and thus to secure advantages of any kind.”
Try again.
It depends if you consider it null and void due to 2014 coup. If you don’t, it was in violation of that agreement.
