"Putin sees himself as a strong man, an alpha, who doesn't get pushed around. Now, all of sudden, he's getting pushed around."
In forcing Putin into a conciliatory address on Russian state TV, Trump has shown he is the "alpha male" in the relationship between the two world leaders, says British-American financier Sir Bill Browder.

Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is boasting on the front page of The Wall Street Journal that, “Ukraine will not legally recognize the occupation of Crimea. There’s nothing to talk about here.” This statement is very harmful to the Peace Negotiations with Russia in that Crimea was lost years ago under the auspices of President Barack Hussein Obama, and is not even a point of discussion. Nobody is asking Zelenskyy to recognize Crimea as Russian Territory but, if he wants Crimea, why didn’t they fight for it eleven years ago when it was handed over to Russia without a shot being fired? The area also houses, for many years before “the Obama handover,” major Russian submarine bases. It’s inflammatory statements like Zelenskyy’s that makes it so difficult to settle this War. He has nothing to boast about! The situation for Ukraine is dire — He can have Peace or, he can fight for another three years before losing the whole Country. I have nothing to do with Russia, but have much to do with wanting to save, on average, five thousand Russian and Ukrainian soldiers a week, who are dying for no reason whatsoever. The statement made by Zelenskyy today will do nothing but prolong the “killing field,” and nobody wants that! We are very close to a Deal, but the man with “no cards to play” should now, finally, GET IT DONE. I look forward to being able to help Ukraine, and Russia, get out of this Complete and Total MESS, that would have never started if I were President!

"Now, Zelenskyy will have no choice but to back down and accept Trump's terms.
But here's the genius part - Trump is actually protecting Ukraine without dragging the U.S. into war.
By securing a mining deal - Trump ensures that Americans will be involved in Ukraine's mining industry.
This prevents Russia from launching an invasion, because attacking Ukraine would mean endangering American lives - something that would force the U.S. to respond.
Trump Played both sides like a master chess player.
In the end, Zelenskyy will have no choice but to concede, because without U.S. support, Ukraine cannot win a prolonged war against Russia.
And once U.S. Companies have mining operations in Ukraine, Putin will be unable to attack without massive international consequences.
Don't underestimate Donald Trump.
In this game of chess, he's 10 moves ahead of everyone."
