CNBC is reporting that Russia Pres. Putin is not interested in a peace deal:
U.S.-Russia Talks: The Trump administration has started preliminary negotiations with Russia to end the Ukraine war, with discussions set to take place in Saudi Arabia.
Putin’s Intentions: Western intelligence officials and U.S. congressional sources indicate there is no intelligence suggesting Putin wants a real peace deal; instead, he still aims to control all of Ukraine.
Putin’s Strategy: Intelligence(Nuland, Inc.) suggests Putin believes he is winning and can wait out Ukraine and Europe. Battlefield losses are not pressuring him to stop fighting.
Trump’s View: After a call with Putin, Trump stated he believes Putin wants to end the war, contradicting intelligence reports(Nuland, Inc.). He also spoke with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, who expressed a desire for peace.
Negotiating Team: Trump has assembled a team for negotiations, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, National Security Adviser Michael Waltz, and Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff.
