US – Ukraine Agreement Shows A Deal Is Never Dead With Trump

Posted by: lukwago J in World news March 12, 2025

Let’s not rush to label it as a breakthrough; there’s still a considerable distance to cover before we can achieve lasting peace. However, the recent agreement between the US and Ukraine for a temporary ceasefire in the conflict with Russia marks a notable shift in direction.

Merely a week ago, the US had halted military assistance and intelligence sharing with Ukraine following a tense meeting between Volodymyr Zelensky and Donald Trump at the White House.

The fact that diplomats from both nations managed to mend relations and outline a way forward underscores Trump’s approach to negotiations, where tough talk and posturing often pave the way for dialogue.

While Trump’s confrontational style yielded quick outcomes in certain situations, such as Ontario’s retreat on an energy surcharge, the ongoing trade disputes have taken a toll on the stock market.

The fluctuations and uncertainties resulting from tariff escalations with Canada and other trading partners have wiped out significant market value.

Uncertainties and stumbling blocks

Despite Ukraine’s willingness to agree to a temporary ceasefire conditional on Russia’s cooperation, critical issues like the mineral rights deal with Ukraine and Russia’s response to the ceasefire proposal remain unresolved.

Trump’s desire for a share in Ukrainian mining revenues and the uncertainty surrounding Putin’s stance pose potential obstacles to progress.

As Trump navigates the complexities of international negotiations, the question arises: Will his current approach continue to yield results, or will he need to explore alternative strategies?

The journey towards fulfilling his promise of ending the conflict demands a delicate balancing act, where success could bring about peace and prosperity, while failure may result in tragic consequences.
