“US and Germany ‘plan to force Zelenskyy to negotiate’ through choking off arms supplies”

So far, this is just a report of a rumor.

"The conversations have included very broad outlines of what Ukraine might need to give up to reach a deal, the officials said.

The discussions are an acknowledgment of the dynamics militarily on the ground in Ukraine and politically in the U.S. and Europe, officials said."
