Trump boasts of giving Ukraine's assets to Putin
from Mallen Baker: Faultlines · host Mallen Baker
President Trump and President Putin have a direct call scheduled to take place tomorrow (Tuesday 18th Mar). In talking about it, Trump said that part of the discussion would cover the division of assets, including land and energy infrastructure. This, along with several other indicators that have emerged today, suggest that Trump remains of a mind to give Putin most of what he would ever want in order to get to a ceasefire. And since a lot of it won't be acceptable to Ukraine, we can expect some serious pressure to be applied in the wake of whatever agreement emerges, if indeed it does. Let's discuss.
