What the US wants from Ukraine: leave Donbass, one way or another, - Politico.▪️The negotiations between the US and Ukraine are stuck on one main issue: how to force Ukraine to give up all of Donbass - what the Kremlin failed to capture during the war.▪️"As for the territories, everything is simple for the Americans: Russia demands that Ukraine give up the territories, and the Americans are thinking about how to make this possible," - a European source.▪️"The Americans insist that Ukraine leave Donbass... one way or another," - a source.▪️Moreover, the US wants all this to happen quickly.▪️"Maybe Trump wants it to happen quickly, and his [Trump's] team is forced to explain to him that they are not to blame for the fact that it's not happening as quickly as he wants," - a European official.(And that's why they blame Zelensky for everything, - note.).▪️"It's important to understand how America will behave: as a mediator or will lean towards the Russians," - a European source.__There are simply no words... Perhaps this is the most shameful moment for America in its entire 250-year history.
