    US-led diplomatic efforts

    Former ambassador Michael McFaul to Russia says

    Journalists need to stop accepting this false frame from Trump that he
    is trying to negotiate a peace deal between Ukraine and Putin. He is
    not. He is throwing the Ukrainians under the bus and embracing Putin.
    That is NOT mediation.

    "Trump coerces Zelensky and appeases Putin. Why does he never
    pressure Putin?"

    US will get its "money back" with the mineral deal, but T-Borg's
    latest actions (no intel and no military aid) shows only a US-led
    diplomatic effort is the way forward...no iffs, ands, or butts if US
    intel and military aid is wanted.

    Agreed, jeezus M christ the mainstream press - and a lot of non
    mainstream press - is stupid. Critical thought, people, give it a try.
