Trump Ready to Recognize Russian Control of Occupied Ukraine in Peace Deal – Media
Trump's peace plan includes US recognition of Russian control over Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk, breaking diplomatic norms and raising concerns among European allies.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump is reported to propose U.S. recognition of Russian control over parts of Ukraine, including Crimea, as a means to end the war; Vladimir Putin said this recognition would be key in negotiations.
- The plan would break long‑standing U.S. diplomatic convention and is reported likely to go ahead despite concerns among Ukraine's European allies.
- From the battlefield, Shaun Pinner, a former British soldier, said `Land is never 'just land.'` and warned that people are reliving past horrors because of proposed recognition of Russian control in Ukraine.
- Michael McFaul warned recognition would reward imperial conquest and cause global instability, Garry Kasparov cautioned to `replace 'leader of the free world' with 'for sale'`, and Marko Mihkelson said `If this is true, then we have a major problem, Houston.`
- The envoy trip to Moscow suggests an active negotiating track as Steve Witkoff, Trump peace envoy, and Jared Kushner, Trump adviser and son-in-law, engage Vladimir Putin on recognizing Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk, reshaping U.S. diplomatic policy.
