Trump said he plans to meet Putin, then brief Zelensky and European leaders on “what kind of deal” might be possible—insisting he won’t make a deal himself, but hinting at brokering a ceasefire involving land swaps. Critics point out this is contradictory: he claims it’s “not his deal” yet outlines territorial changes, including Russia returning some occupied areas and Ukraine conceding others. Ukraine has already rejected such swaps, fearing they would legitimize Russia’s control. Analysts warn Trump is in a no-win position:

If he agrees with Putin but can’t get Ukraine or Europe to accept it, he looks weak and unable to deliver.

If he leaves without an agreement, he looks ineffective with both sides.

Either way, he risks being accused of “bargaining away” Ukrainian land without Kyiv’s consent, while also failing to achieve results, making him appear powerless and politically vulnerable.
