President Trump has spoken nicely about Vladimir Putin as he brokers a peace deal between Moscow and Kyiv, but he’s also gently letting Vlad know he’ll need to make some real concessions, too: Ukraine should get its land back.
On Wednesday, Trump told reporters he aims “to make the best deal we can for both sides,” which “for Ukraine” means getting “as much back as possible.”
Good.
The Kremlin’s already bitten back at our president’s suggestion that Putin wouldn’t mind if some European troops serve in Ukraine to protect the peace; if it digs in on this front too, Vlad may find himself with no exit from a war he can’t afford to keep going.
Russia’s economy is in growing trouble, and Putin’s supply of North Korean cannon fodder isn’t infinite.
