Russian propaganda Telegram channels are spreading the false claim that panic allegedly erupted in Kyiv because Trump did not mention Ukraine in his inaugural speech on January 20. However, this is a manipulation, as pointed out by experts from the Center for Strategic Communications and Information Security. The absence of any mention of Ukraine in the speech does not indicate Trump's ‘indifference’ - the 47th president of the United States clearly focused on issues directly related to the United States.

Former Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin emphasized in an interview with Radio NV that there is no need to create panic over the fact that Ukraine was not mentioned in Trump's speech. The speech was centered around the Make America Great Again  concept, and Trump primarily spoke about the United States.

Moreover, during discussions with journalists, Trump confirmed his willingness to engage in talks with both Zelenskyi and Putin to achieve peace and end the war. “We are in touch with Zelenskyi, and we will soon speak with President Putin. We'll see how things unfold”, said the U.S. president.

Additionally, Trump's appointment of retired General Keith Kellogg as Special Representative for Ukraine indicates that the new administration will pay attention to this issue. In early January, Kellogg stated that he intended to find a solution to end the full-scale war of Russia against Ukraine within 100 days from the inauguration.

This manipulative information is being spread by Russian propaganda to create a sense of Ukraine's isolation and to give the impression that the U.S. is indifferent or dismissive toward Ukraine. Such narratives are aimed at sowing doubts in the public regarding Western partners' support for Ukraine.
