Private prison stocks rose on Monday after President-elect Donald Trump selected immigration hardliner Tom Homan as his “border czar.”
Now, as leaders across Europe and Russia wait anxiously to see what direction the Trump administration might take, there are mounting concerns that Trump could push for a hasty ceasefire requiring Ukraine to cede significant portions of its territory - even as Kyiv's European partners vow to back its armed forces for 'as long as it takes'.
The Kremlin has denied Donald Trump spoke with Vladimir Putin in a phone call the day after the presidential election.
Trump announced his decision to tap Homan for the position in his incoming administration in a post on Truth Social on Sunday, filling the role currently occupied by Vice President Kamala Harris.
