Ukraine-US talks: Trump is interested in getting a ‘deal’, not peace, analyst says

Ukrainian analyst Hanna Shelest says Kyiv’s European partners travelling to Washington, DC, must lay out the stakes of the war not just for Ukraine but for the rest of the world.
“They need to explain that the Russian president was manipulating the US president and the fact that Donald Trump would like a ‘deal’,” she said.
“Not peace, but a quick deal is more important for him than the long-term consequences of what can be in this deal. And also that these agreements are not just about Ukraine. They’re about European security.”
