We have sufficient leverage over only one party in this war...to compel a peace.

If that is the US goal, to immediately compel a full ceasefire, then we have the leverage to do so.

But I think the administration holds that goal and is, for whatever reason, dissuaded from using the leverage we have.

And we have very, very little leverage over Russia as will be clear to everyone shortly.

Putin only has one week left to agree to President Trump’s Easter ceasefire.

Yes we do. Make oil super cheap again. We need to get it under $40 per barrel. That is probably the next step here since the ceasefire is not happening.
