Trump is on the verge of a "Peace" NEGOTIATION with Putin... and I would guess Trump is preparing the GROUND !   Make BS statements like Trump is going to CAVE to Putin?  It just doesn't SOUND like Trump !!

If I were Trump, in such a negotiation... I might float the possibility of re-reinstatement in the G7, dropping all sanctions, normalizing relations, and establishing a pre 2012 landscape... HOWEVER, it would mean Russia would need to pull back from ALL territories in Ukraine... INCLUDING Crimea... and paying Ukraine Reparations !  The FLIP side, might be NO DEAL, with MORE, and More lethal weapons to Ukraine, the hiring a mercenary (non NATO) army to HELP Ukraine fight, and MORE F-16's to achieve air superiority.... Personally, I think the final deal will be something in between, BUT it gives Russia (and Putin) something to THINK about !!

I don't think Putin should expect that he is going to be handed a win in Ukraine... there will be a CARROT, AND there will be a STICK... TRUMP DOES want the war to be over... and I don't think it will be something Putin is going to be terribly happy about... EITHER WAY... BUT, it will be up to Putin to choose...
