Summary
Advisers to Donald Trump acknowledge that resolving the Ukraine war could take months, contradicting Trump’s campaign pledge of a “Day One” peace deal.
Trump’s incoming envoy, Keith Kellogg, suggested a 100-day target, but analysts consider even that timeline overly optimistic.
Russia has shown limited interest in proposed peace plans, and Trump’s team is contemplating freezing battle lines and offering Ukraine security guarantees.
Progress has been slow, hampered by diplomatic complexities and legal concerns, such as Kellogg postponing a pre-inauguration Kyiv visit due to the Logan Act.
“As soon as I become president, I can make a peace deal that’ll have the war in Ukrainian solved within 24 hours”.
Who cares? Trump’s ‘peace deal’ will be trying to convince Zelenskyy that he should relinquish eastern Ukraine to end the war.
It’s up to the UK and the EU to support them now. I’m sorry. Many of my countrymen are the fucking worst.
They have ideas for a plan.
Trump’s solution of “give Putin whatever he wants” wasn’t very appealing to the Ukrainians.
Yeah, even that feels outlandish.
TIL “Adviser” isn’t actually a misspelling of “Advisor” but an actual legitimate alternative spelling.
I was all ready to come in here and rake Reuters for such a basic error, but figured (as I usually do) that I should check my facts before making an ass of myself. Good thing I did…
Apparently adviser is more common in the uk, which makes sense as Reuters is headquartered in London apparently. Spelling is silly anyway do whatever u want m8
Lord let me be wrong.
