I explained this on the spam thread. These ‘ideas’ are NOT coming from Trump’s people (at least not his inner core, as they understand Russian concerns about ‘trusting’ the West), but rather the CURRENT Administration, who are trying to project a ‘solution’ that gets them off the hook for their horrific war.
Russia, wants a COMPREHENSIVE conclusion to the war (as they have said over and over), and that means new borders, international recognition of those borders, and a way to ensure Ukraine never enters NATO, which the West simply cannot provide, given their track record. It will take a neutral third party, maybe China or India to essentially occupy what’s left of Ukraine to ensure peace, or Russia will likely go right to the Polish border, and then work out a deal with Europe to partition Ukraine.
Own it or shut up and if nobody owns it, as a public official, on public policy, foreign or domestic, don't print it. Simple. Stop the endless speculation caused by doing it.
