According to him, everything that Trump said during the election campaign had nothing to do with Ukraine. This concerned exclusively the domestic political situation in the United States and was aimed at American voters.
“The plan for Ukraine is being formed, this time and the Russians don’t like it anymore what we heard from them around (Trump – ed.), the Russians don’t like it anymore. There are two main points the demarcation line and the fact that it will not to take place any disarmament of Ukraine. The Russians are not satisfied with this, said Zagorodny.
He reminded that Putin can cease fire only if Ukraine refuses to join NATO and gives Zaporozhye, Kherson and Donetsk region to Russia, and the Americans recognize this as Russian territory.
“Such nonsense will never be implemented, it already contradicts the positions that exist. Trump makes it clear: Putin, if you want to talk to me, let’s talk. About what? About the Pechenegs? About the Rurikovichs and the fact that you want a sphere of this basic influence in Europe. He will not listen to this nonsense, noted the expert.
According to him, there is a plan B – Pompeo’s plan. He proposes to give Ukraine everything possible: lend leases for 500 billion, lift all restrictions on attacks against the Russian Federation and generally talk with Russia based on the position of February 24.
“Plus or minus, the options have already been worked out, but they have not yet been fixed, but Trump is not president yet, and before that it is clear what he will do. He will definitely destroy the Russian economy not because of his love to Ukraine, but because of the interests of American oil producers, Zagorodny added.
The expert noted that Trump’s strange statements about Panama and Greenland are a “hello” to China.
“Because China sits in the Panama Canal They bought ports there and it seems that Panama manages the canal on its own, but no, the Chinese sit there is also China, the Chinese want the Arctic route that he would withdraw from the WHO – this has been known for a long time, he said it is actually under the control of China,” he said.
Iran, according to Zagorodny, will generally be bombed.
“Since Netanyahu (Prime Minister of Israel – ed.) often started saying something about democracy in Iran, this whole unholy trinity, fighting against Ukraine, will already be subject to pressure from Trump,” the expert added.
Trump wants to end the war in Ukraine
Let’s remember that US President-elect Donald Trump insisted that he wants a quick end to Russia’s war on Ukraine. In particular, he promised to end the war within the first 24 hours of his presidency.
According to Reuters, Trump has three main options on the table to end the war. These are the plans of the Special Representative for Ukraine and Russia Keith Kellogg, US Vice President-elect JD Vance and former Acting. intelligence chief Richard Grennell. All of them, in one form or another, propose freezing the war beyond the current limit.
Also Trump promised to speak with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyto end the war.
In addition, a visit to Kiev is planned in January by Keith Kellogg, who after Trump’s inauguration will take the post of special representative for Ukraine.
