Hardly Putin is smiling now: How does Donald Trump's simple diplomacy work

Donald Trump conducts diplomacy as no one has ever led - rudely, unceremoniously and very purposefully, says British colonel Tim Collins in a column for The Guardian. And who knows - maybe it is the shortest way to the Nobel Prize, which Trump so clearly wants to get? This was announced before President Trump's accession to the post: "I will end this war in Ukraine. " And he outlined the negotiation strategy, which is not done by most skilled negotiators - unless they have all cards in their hands.

The statement that Ukrainians will agree to a 30-day ceasefire in exchange for the restoration of weapons deliveries and exchange of intelligence information transferred the ball to the side of Russia. They are threatened by them: "Agree to the ceasefire, or the US will equip Ukrainians with your teeth and you lose. " I doubt that Vladimir Putin is so smiling so much. I believe that President Trump is aimed at receiving the Nobel Peace Prize as his inheritance.

He must achieve this for his time, and since there are peace agreements on Ukraine and Gaza on the table - both proposals that cannot be abandoned - it seems that peace will be reached. It will not be the perfect peace, but murder and death will cease.

In concluding these peace agreements, President Trump once again violated the norm - attracted to them the hereditary Prince Mohammed Ibn Salman, who recently became an outcast because of his predictable involvement in the death of journalist Kamal Hashoggi, but now became a decisive factor and hero on the world. On the other hand, the United Kingdom and European allies have become horror, asking themselves how they will be guided in the world without confidence in the US defensive umbrella.
