Former US Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink published an op-ed in the Detroit Free Press criticizing Trump's foreign policy as "appeasement." Meanwhile, Mike Pence appeared on "Meet the Press" to defend traditional US interventionism. Trump's speech in Riyadh is cited as a pivot away from failed nation-building policies, which the hosts characterize as "rubbalizing" countries under the guise of democracy.

U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink provided an assessment of the conflict, noting that Russia has made no significant inroads since the beginning of July. The influx of HIMARS rocket systems is credited with shifting the momentum in favor of Ukrainian forces. Critics point out the absurdity of claiming a lack of progress over a period of only a few days.
