Over two months from Inauguration Day, the Trump team has apparently taken its first steps toward making good on the candidate's promise to stop the bloodshed in Ukraine, with a WSJ report outlining options for freezing the crisis. The purported peace plan is a good first step, but would need tweaks to become acceptable to Russia, an observer says.
Citing informed sources, including members of Trump's inner circle, the Wall Street Journal's report outlines a proposal to freeze the Ukrainian front and set up a demilitarized zone along its length, force Kiev to abandon its pursuit of NATO membership for at least 20 years, but continue deliveries of arms to Zelensky.
