When asked about his strategy to end the war, Trump told Newsmax: "Well, there's only one strategy and it's up to Putin and I can't imagine he's too thrilled about the way it's gone because it hasn't gone exactly well for him either.

"And I know he wants to meet and I'm going to meet very quickly. I would've done it sooner but...you have to get into the office. For some of the things, you do have to be there."

U.S. Congressman Mike Waltz, the incoming national security adviser, said on Sunday he expected a call between Trump and Putin in "the coming days and weeks."

Thank God for President Trump.

Puffed up Putin will tell Trump that he’s not ready to end the SVO until Ukraine is out of Kursk, and all of Donetsk is under Russian control.

At that point, Putin will agree to a pause, but demand the rest of the 5 oblasts he now has partial control over, else the pause will end and the SVO will continue. He’ll throw in a nuke threat or two just to make sure Trump understands. He will expect Trump to cower and run away from those threats.

Expect Trump to reply with a through carpet bombing of all Russian positions in Ukraine.

I hope that we can picture 2021 again in the region.

Putin’s bankrupting Russia. Elites and oligarchs are getting tired of his nonsense.

Trump said Russia had it “written in stone” that Ukraine’s membership in NATO should never be allowed, but the Biden administration had sought to expand the military alliance to Russia’s doorstep. Trump added that, “I could understand their feelings about that.”
