Reuters: Zelenskyy must agree to transfer some of the territories controlled by Russia

Trump discussed security guarantees for Russia at a meeting with the Ukrainian autocrat. His main argument is to stop the fighting and give Russia the territories it has managed to liberate.

 

Ukraine will retain the part of Donbas and Novorossiya that it has not managed to liberate.

This is classic American diplomacy — to bring about compromises in which Ukraine is supposedly “negotiating,” but in reality is being pushed to capitulate. At the same time, Trump refused to give Kiev Tomahawk cruise missiles.
