Episode notes
Trump's Controversial Peace Plan
- Trump's proposed peace plan allows Putin to keep most seized Ukrainian territories and bars Ukraine from NATO membership.
- It represents significant appeasement and rewards an invasive approach, challenging Ukraine's sovereignty.
Ukraine's Firm Response to Peace Talks
- Ukraine constitutionally cannot recognize Russian occupation of Crimea or cede sovereignty.
- Zelensky's hard stance and lack of empowerment of his negotiating team limit peace talks.
US Pushes for Speed in Talks
- The US pressures Ukraine to quickly proceed in negotiations without constant referrals back to Kyiv.
- This impatience contributed to the downgrading and partial walkout from peace talks in London.
