President Trump's initiative to negotiate peace in the Ukraine crisis raises questions about potential talks with President Putin. Following ongoing conflict and failed past negotiations, there is skepticism about the sincerity of any deal. Ukraine is in a weakened position, making painful concessions likely, which might be perceived as rewarding Putin’s aggression. Concurrently, economic strains on Russia due to the war could push for negotiations. However, the risks remain high, as Europe's and Ukraine’s concerns about Trump negotiating over their heads persist amid doubts over Putin’s willingness to engage constructively.
Ukraine currently faces limited options to counter Russia's recent battlefield gains, leading to a potential peace deal that would likely require painful concessions.
Many experts are skeptical about Mr. Putin negotiating in good faith, raising concerns over President Trump potentially making deals without considering European and Ukrainian interests.
