Ines Paul

Ines Paul, DW's Bureau Chief in Washington, discusses the complex dynamics of U.S. diplomacy regarding Ukraine amid Trump's criticisms of Europe’s inaction. She explains his motivations for a rapid truce, including potential concessions from Zelensky. The conversation explores the implications of a peace deal for Ukrainians, the role of security guarantees, and how China's support for Russia complicates matters.
