Trump-Zelensky Cease-Fire Deal is a Way to Extend the War

 President Trump seems as if he is moving closer toward the Von Biden point of view of the Ukraine conflict. That is he has made a cease-fire proposal entirely advantageous to Ukraine. It would give Ukraine 30 days to receive new military equipment and cash from the U.S.A. and stop Russia from continuing its advance to recover lost land lost in Ukraine in the Clinton carpet-bagging regimen.

In order to stop the war firm border lines need to be drawn, sanctions ended and a demilitarization of Ukraine need evolve. With those conditions established and agreed upon by the principle parties a cease-fire could be applied and the peace treaty actualized.

Common sense was President Trump’s approach to global economics in regard to Ukraine. Unless the peace treaty is produced within a few months further harm to the global trading position of the United States may occur.  The U.S.A. is already number two in world trade exports; its share may drop further minimizing markets abroad while China's exports increase favorably. Germany signed new agreements with China and several European nations have signed new agreements with several South American nations. Meanwhile U.S. leadership is discovering new ways to make an enemy of Russian and serve as Europe's militaire attardé.

President Putin may have his own ideas about what conditions need exist for a peace treaty. A cease-fire without a peace treaty is a way for the losing party in a boxing match to get out of a round where he is taking a beating to recover and strategize for the next round. In other words it can be a tool for protracting a war.

Perhaps President Trump has a plan B that he will give to the Russians after they reject the cease-fire agreement. Sometimes it is challenging to discern what is political perfidy and what is part of a negotiating tactic. Observers like to get to the real content sooner rather than later.
