accept realistic proposals from Putin.

They include installing a government of Russia’s choice, the de-nazification of Ukraine (essentially amounting to Holodomor v2 with the execution of millions), & the creation of buffer zones to include all of the Baltics and Poland.

Very realistic, eh?

I think the current position of the Zelensky government is that the Russians need to withdraw from Ukraine, return Crimea to Ukraine, pay war reparations to rebuild Ukraine via liquidated Russian assets in the West and accept that Ukraine enters into NATO and maintains NATO troops in Ukraine.

Zelensky and his Western backers are openly mocking the peace process with promises that regardless of whatever deal President Trump negotiates, as soon as as Trump is out of office they will consider the deal null and void and subject to re negotiation on their terms

Not sure that is serious jumping off point for any negotiation given the circumstances on the ground.
