Trump: "I heard today that 'we [Ukraine] were never invited [to the negotiations]', well you've been there for three years and should have never started it"
Wild stuff. The outcome in Ukraine will be entirely based on how well the parties play into making Trump look good at the negotiating table.
Putin is playing it intelligently, he is letting his advisors play hardball and can swoop in as the reasonable dealmaker later as necessary.
Zelensky, on the other hand, badly miscalculated by challenging Trump in public on multiple platforms.
The problem here for me is that Trump fundamentally misunderstands Russian objectives with respect to Ukraine. He's looking at this like a real estate deal instead of a question of control over Ukraine's political and social destiny. When they hit that point in negotiations they will stall.

For Oleksandra Tsekhanovska, head of the Hybrid Warfare Analytical Group at the Kyiv-based Ukraine Crisis Media Center, the effects are both near- and far-reaching. He adds: "Telegram has become my primary news source." Perpetrators of these scams will create a public group on Telegram to promote these investment packages that are usually accompanied by fake testimonies and sometimes advertised as being Shariah-compliant. Interested investors will be asked to directly message the representatives to begin investing in the various investment packages offered. You may recall that, back when Facebook started changing WhatsApp’s terms of service, a number of news outlets reported on, and even recommended, switching to Telegram. Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp.
