I will back whatever Trump decides. I was 100% wrong about Russia. I am ashamed to say that I truly believed that Russia was fighting a defensive war that was provoked by The West. That they wanted an end to this war once their stated goals were achieved. No NATO membership for Ukraine and the annexation of The Russian speaking provinces of Ukraine. But if that were the case, the framework for a peace deal would’ve already been inked. Trump has basically agreed to these terms. This simply hasn’t happened.

It has become clear that Russia’s stated goals for this war were a smoke screen. This war is nothing more than a bloody land grab.

Where has the EU and Ukraine agreed to Russia’s list of demands?

Totally missed that.
