Putin urges U.S. negotiates to end Ukraine war

Published

on

Russian President Vladimir Putin engaged in a two-hour interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson at the Kremlin.

Putin’s message was clear: he called on the United States to enter negotiations and agree to cede Ukrainian territory to Russia in order to end the ongoing conflict, marking his most direct appeal to American sensibilities since the invasion commenced two years ago.

 

During the interview, Putin departed from his usual rhetoric, emphasising that he envisions the resolution of the Ukraine crisis not through military victory, but through diplomatic negotiations with the West.

He underscored the necessity of dialogue, indicating that Russia is prepared to engage in discussions to end the war, asserting that the Western powers have realised that Russia cannot be defeated militarily.

Russian control

Responding to Carlson’s inquiry about the possibility of NATO accepting Russian control over parts of Ukraine, Putin urged Western leaders to contemplate dignified solutions, suggesting that options exist if there is a genuine willingness to negotiate.

This interview, conducted on Tuesday, marked Putin’s first engagement with a Western media outlet since the onset of the conflict in Ukraine and his first with an American outlet since 2021.

The Kremlin’s decision to select Carlson for the interview was attributed to the perception that traditional Western media outlets exhibit a biased stance towards Russia.

While Putin typically espouses Russia as a defender of traditional values against what he perceives as a declining West, he adopted a more measured tone during the interview, acknowledging the pragmatic nature of Western society and its achievements in various fields.

Strategic confidence

Putin’s appearance on Carlson’s show underscores his strategic confidence amidst a backdrop of vulnerability for his adversaries.

With Ukraine facing challenges on the battlefield and further military aid stalled in the US Congress, Putin appears emboldened, particularly with the rise of Kremlin-friendly politicians, including former President Donald Trump, who is currently a leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination.

Judge grants request to pause Trump’s federal Jan. 6 case

Special Counsel Jack Smith moves to vacate pretrial deadlines as DOJ weighs next steps after Trump’s Election Day victory.

U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan on Friday granted Special Counsel Jack Smith’s request to pause proceedings in former President Donald Trump’s federal Jan. 6 case.

The decision halts upcoming pretrial deadlines, allowing the Department of Justice (DOJ) time to consider next steps after Trump’s recent electoral win.

Smith’s motion filed on Friday highlighted the unprecedented situation, noting, “as a result of the election,” the DOJ seeks to vacate remaining deadlines to “assess this unprecedented circumstance.”

Judge Chutkan agreed, instructing the prosecution to submit a status report on December 2 with its proposed course of action.

The request marks a pivotal step, likely steering toward a halt in prosecution, given the DOJ’s longstanding policy against prosecuting a sitting president.

Trump’s victory, making him the first convicted felon elected to the White House, has prompted DOJ officials to deliberate on how best to close Smith’s two federal cases against him.

Had Trump lost the race against Vice President Harris, the former president could have faced potential prison time.

However, this Election Day win likely shields him from criminal consequences while in office.
