Witkoff Sides With Putin To Impose Pro-Russia Deal On Ukraine
https://www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...h-putin-to-impose-pro-russia-deal-on-ukraine/
In widely criticized remarks about Russia, Trump envoy Steve Witkoff has attempted to create the conditions to impose an unfavorable ceasefire deal on Ukraine. Witkoff has been faulted for lacking the knowledge to negotiate a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. The criticism came after Witkoff made a series of disputed statements during an interview with ex-Fox News host Tucker Carlson, comments praised in the Russian media. In the interview, Witkoff, who Trump has tasked to lead efforts with Russia to end the war in Ukraine, repeated several pro-Kremlin talking points that few analysts believe are trustworthy and said he admired Russian leader Vladimir Putin's kindness and intelligence. The broader context of Witkoff's statements may be Donald Trump's pursuit of a Nobel Peace Prize without concern for a deal's impact on Ukraine's sovereignty and long-term security.
Witkoff Accused Of Ignorance Of Facts About Russia And Ukraine
In February 2025, Donald Trump appointed his longtime friend Steve Witkoff, a New York real estate developer, an American envoy to Russia and Vladimir Putin. There is no publicly available evidence that Witkoff possesses expertise on Russia or the region's history.

How many times does it have to be shown to the right that Trump and his appointed administration are allied with Russia? And yes, the 'Russia Russia Russia 'hoax' is not a hoax, it is real and if people on the right could only have enough decency and admiration and respect for democracy, they would stand with us on this. It would mean the survival of our democracy. The GOP has been compromised by our longtime enemy, Russia. But for what? Power and money seems to be the only answer.
