These clowns are so predictable. Trump’s envoy Witkoff says a Ukraine peace deal would include "settling the issue of five territories" — plus security protocols & other geopolitical elements, although being 'difficult'.
Zelensky should tell him to shove it.

U.S. and Russia have “reached an understanding,” according to Trump’s Envoy Witkoff following his meeting with Putin. “This peace agreement involves five territories—but it’s about much more than that. It’s about security protocols, NATO, Article 5—there are many details.”
They're going to demand Ukraine surrenders the 5 territories.
Trump on new sanctions after Russia’s barbaric strike on Sumy: "I already sanctioned Russia. Remember Nord Stream 2? Biggest pipeline ever. Maybe in the world. I stopped it. Went to Germany. I stopped it."
Donny, the question was about now. Real pressure, big pressure, the biggest pressure ever.

Trump’s Nord Stream 2 Disaster
Trump did not stop Nord Stream 2 — he enabled it. The Nord Stream 2 pipeline went from zero to 90 percent completed during Trump’s presidency. Rather than stop it “dead,” the Trump administration rejected years of bipartisan congressional calls for imposition of sanctions to stop the project. Only when Congress, in frustration, passed mandatory sanctions did the administration finally take concrete action. But by then it was too late.
Finally, in late 2019 — with the project 90 percent completed — a frustrated Congress, led by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) and Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), inserted a provision into the must-pass National Defense Authorization Act mandating that the administration apply targeted sanctions against ships involved in the laying of undersea pipe for the project.
With the project nearly complete, Germany was determined to see it through and criticized what it saw as U.S. overreach. As 2020 progressed, Gazprom was able to deploy some of its own pipe-laying vessels to the Baltic Sea. Only in July 2020 did Pompeo finally rescind the Tillerson guidance, making Nord Stream 2 itself subject to sanctions. But it was too little, too late.
