Ceasefire in Ukraine: Can Trump Influence Putin.
The USA has proposed a ceasefire for Ukraine, but Russia has refused. Donald Trump urged Putin to sign an agreement for a 30-day truce, otherwise there will be 'disappointment.'
Currently, there are three possible options. The first is the imposition of additional sanctions against Russia. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen and Chairman of the National Economic Council Kevin Haggerty have discussed secondary sanctions against countries purchasing Russian oil for more than $60 per barrel. China, India, and Turkey are Russia's largest clients.
The second option is to ban the import of products based on Russian oil. This will significantly complicate the situation for the Russian economy.
The third option is the use of military methods. However, Russia sells almost nothing to the USA, so this option is limited.
Ukraine is ready for negotiations. But the role of Keith Kellogg in this process is still unknown.
We must not forget about the second part of the plan - supplying Ukraine with weapons. This is a complex and expensive task for the USA, which has already spent a lot on the war. This step also requires political support.
In any case, Kellogg's strategy has its risks that need to be considered.
