We gotta talk about this Trump-Putin phone call and why it’s being seen as the latest sign that The White House may be getting ready to walk away from its efforts to end the war in Ukraine. Right, last year as you may remember, Donald Trump promised he would end the war in "24 hours". Last week, he said that it wouldn’t be resolved until he and Vladimir Putin could "get together" and hash it out in person. And now, he seems to be saying there’s not really anything he can do at all. Right, specifically, after his two-hour talk with the Russian president, you had him saying that a peace deal could only be negotiated between Russia and Ukraine – and maybe with the help of the Pope. Because “they know details of a negotiation that nobody else would be aware of.’ With him also claiming that the two sides would "immediately start negotiations toward a Ceasefire and, more importantly, an END to the War.” But notably, that’s somewhat at odds with the Russian view.
Right, because Putin said after the call that Russia is only ready to work with Ukraine on crafting a "memorandum on a possible future peace agreement.” With a Kremlin spokesperson adding that there is “no timeline” for preparing this memorandum – and adding: “It’s clear that everyone wants to do this as quickly as possible, but of course the devil is in the details.” And to that point, Putin is sticking to his demand that any resolution to end the war would address the so-called "root causes" of the war – Which Russia has claimed in the past include the existence of Ukraine as a fully independent and sovereign nation aligned with the West.
