The Logic of Individual Negotiations

Starting negotiations often requires individual discussions rather than a combined meeting, especially when parties are at odds. This approach is likened to President Trump's current strategy in addressing the situation in Ukraine, where he reaches out to both the Russian and Ukrainian sides through their representatives. This method helps set a productive foundation for future negotiations aimed at reaching peace and stability in the region. The emphasis is on allowing the president the space to operate without immediate second-guessing, recognizing the complexities involved in diplomatic engagements.
