Trump changed Putin's strategy: Fox News called the most realistic path to peace in Ukraine

To extend: For the first time after returning to the White House in July, US President Donald Trump supported Ukraine in the NATO weapons agreement and also put a rigid ultimatum in front of the Kremlin. Such a strategy should work, but the "real" negotiations may take years and Ukraine may probably have to temporarily abandon NATO, warned the security expert Fred Flytz.

He claims that Trump will steadily adhere to his new strategy, trying to "squeeze" Russian President Vladimir Putin to fair peace talks. Flytz told this in an interview with Fox News on July 27. "He will continue to put pressure on Putin so that he returned at the negotiation table and negotiated in good faith, not sitting at the negotiation table and giving promises that the Russians do not plan to fulfill," the safety expert said.

Flytz stressed that Trump was "not going to tolerate this" and stressed that such a sharp change in the strategy occurred only during the first half of his stay in the presidential chair. Trump Flytz himself considers a "flexible leader" and gives an example of his "flexibility" with Iran when the US president decided to strike a direct blow to the country.

It is worth recalling that if the Kremlin is breaking the 50-day deadline set by Trump and does not stop fire in Ukraine, the US will impose high duties and secondary sanctions for Russia. Fred Flytz states that the Russian-Ukrainian war can end only after the armistice on the battlefield. However, it does not rule out that it may take even a few years. "I think that it will probably be a truce that both parties will agree to suspend the fighting.

The path to the peace agreement, according to Flytz, is likely to require that Ukraine agree not to join NATO for a certain time. However, the expert believes, the Kremlin will understand that Kiev "will be strongly armed with Western allies. " "I think there is a way to do this when Russia will not be concerned about the growth of Western Europe in Ukraine, and Ukraine will not be concerned about Russia's invasion after declaring a ceasefire or a truce," the expert said.
