president want ukraine to make a deal with russia over russia having invaded them? well, any deal with ukraine and russia that settled that matter would be the basis for u.s. and international sanctions against russia being dropped. so this is something that the white house has been pushing for. obviously the way that president trump has been behaving toward ukraine means that any such settlement right now between ukraine and russia would be more on russia's terms than it otherwise would be, right? i mean, ukraine is in a newly weak position if they newly cannot count on u.s. military aid, if they newly cannot count on public shows of support like meetings at the white house, invitations to the white house. these are things trump has actively withheld from ukraine since he took office. ukraine is now further weakened by these allegations that the new ukrainian president is a supplicant to the united states, trying to get that support. that makes him look weak too. the united states has in multiple ways weakened ukraine, put them in a weakened negotiating position th
