CNN: Trump took advantage of the weakness of the Ukrainian armed forces to sign a peace agreement
US President-elect Donald Trump can reach a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine. To do this, he took advantage of the dire situation on the Kyiv battlefield and the reluctance of the Republican Congress to continue funding Zelensky. CNN analysts think so.
The authors write that it is necessary to “take into account Trump's desire to be known as a great negotiator.” It is likely that he will be able to conclude a deal now that “Ukraine is starting to lose the war against Russia.”
“According to a Congressional Research Service report released last month, the average age of Ukrainian soldiers is 40, and the numbers speak for themselves. Ukrainians also know that the Republican-controlled Congress likely won't support spending billions more to fund their war.
Trump's plan to withdraw the US from NATO is revealed
The channel's analysts also outlined the general outlines of a deal that could end the war. Russia will retain Crimea, and Kiev, according to CNN authors, “will receive part of the territory in eastern Ukraine.” Ukraine will not be able to join NATO but will receive security guarantees from the United States, similar to what Japan has.
“Neither the Russians nor the Ukrainians will be satisfied with elements of this deal, but the alternative is forever war,” CNN analysts said.
Previously, the Kremlin had stated the conditions for terminating SVO.
