Can Trump End Wars In Ukraine And The Middle East?

[naomi24]

If I heard Mr Trump correctly yesterday he said he is going to stop both the war in Ukraine and the war in the Middle East.  I sincerely hope he does - but my question is how?

[douglas9401]

Possibly with the peace, love and uderstanding he's famous for.

[ToraToraTora]

the usual method, Carrot/stick.

[naomi24]

So what does that mean, TTT?  What carrot - and what stick?

[Old_Geezer]

By telling them if they don't stop and agree to his ideas then they won't get the support they used to from the US, would be the obvious route. The only other way would be to send in the US military to flatten one side, and that's unlikely to get passed.

09:46 he'll try and get Zelenski to let Putin keep what he's got by promising him NATO membership or withdrawal of aid.

Middle East more difficult probably get Israel to create some sort of state for Gaza in return for the hostages.

And both on his first day in office :-J

By further arming Russua and Israel to enable them to wipe out the opposition.

[naomi24]

TTT, I can't see how he can succeed in either.

[Khandro]

I think he will. and it will end as Elon Musk said it should at the very outbreak of the war; Russia will hold the Crimea (as they have for 300 years) though Ukraine will have to guarantee the flow of river water to it.

The Donbas region should have free and fair referendum (maybe supervised by the UN) to see if they wanted to be part of Russia or Ukraine.

Sorted!

[Old_Geezer]

They've had it since 2014. So, not quite the last 300 years.

Maybe he cant but at least he looks like he is willing to give it a try.

Odd since the libs accuse him of wanting to start WW3.
