Trump has directed some frustration at Zelensky and Europe🇪🇺, believing that they are being unrealistic in their demands and need to accept that Ukraine has to lose some territory to end the conflict, the current and ex-officials told us. He is hesitant to commit more U.S. involvement 🇺🇸, wary of alienating his MAGA base, and he has ratcheted up his efforts to blame the war on his predecessor, Joe Biden, even seven months into his own presidency. “He just wants this over,” the senior official told us. “It almost doesn’t matter how.” 🕊 #Trump#Russia#Ukraine 👂More on Trump's Ear ⚠️

Trump’s Ukraine Peace Show: High Stakes, Low Trust Donald Trump is selling himself as the exhausted planet’s peacemaker‑in‑chief, but his Ukraine diplomacy looks more like a high‑risk branding exercise than a moral awakening. For more than a year back in office he has thrown his weight behind talks with Russia and Ukraine, flown in Jared Kushner and a billionaire “peace envoy,” and wrapped everything in the language of a historic deal to end a nearly five‑year war. On paper, it’s a statesman’s dream. In practice, it’s a pressure campaign where the hottest seat isn’t in Moscow, it’s in Kyiv. The so‑called “energy truce” with Vladimir Putin is a perfect snapshot of the whole project. Trump bragged on TV that he called Putin personally and got him to stop firing on Kyiv and “various towns” for a week — a kind of gentleman’s pause in the middle of a grinding, industrial war. He mocked advisers who told him he was wasting his time, then claimed victory: “He kept his word.” Days later, Russia unleashed one of its largest missile and drone barrages of the year, smashing Ukraine’s power grid in sub‑zero cold, knocking out heat in thousands of apartment blocks and wrecking a plant in Kharkiv beyond repair. Kyiv calls it terror; Trump insists the timing technically honored the deal. This isn’t peacebuilding, it’s loophole management. All of this is happening while American, Russian and Ukrainian negotiators sit in hotel rooms in Abu Dhabi and elsewhere describing the talks as “substantive” and “productive.” The Russian team is fronted by the same intelligence chiefs who helped run the invasion in 2022. The U.S. delegation is heavy with political loyalists and uniformed brass. On the side, separate Russian‑American channels are busy talking oil, sanctions, investment and “economic cooperation” — the polite way of saying that Ukraine’s future borders are being discussed in the same portfolio as tanker traffic and access to Western finance. The war is the headline; the deal is a package. Moscow’s missile diplomacy is not a glitch in this script, it’s the logic. By hammering Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure while sitting at the table, the Kremlin raises the price of resistance for Zelensky and tests how far Trump is willing to go to force concessions. The message is brutal and simple: accept territorial losses, accept a frozen conflict dressed up as peace, or watch your people freeze and your grid collapse every winter. When Zelensky calls for “maximum pressure” — more sanctions, tighter controls on Russian oil profits — he isn’t just begging for leverage; he is trying to survive being turned into a bargaining chip in someone else’s grand bargain with Moscow. What Trump calls “redoubling efforts” looks, from a distance, like doubling down on a familiar pattern: stage a personal drama with Putin, wrap it in talk about ending “endless wars,” and quietly prepare to cash out a bad reality as a great deal. If he can walk away claiming he ended the Ukraine war — even at the cost of Ukrainian territory and long‑term security — he gets to run as the man who did what NATO, the EU and Biden couldn’t. If it fails, he will say he tried, blame Ukrainian “intransigence” or European weakness, and point back to the missiles as proof that the war was never America’s to fix. The uncomfortable truth is that Trump’s peace push is not about justice for Ukraine, and not really about “stability” for Europe. It’s about re‑staging the entire conflict as evidence that only one man can cut a deal with Moscow — and everyone else, from Kyiv to Brussels, is just a prop. #war#ukraine#russia#usa#trump#energy#fakeDemocracy 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸

📰 Palestinian Deputy President Discusses Phase Two of Trump’s Gaza Plan Palestinian Deputy President Hussein al-Sheikh met with UN envoy Nikolay Mladenov in Ramallah to discuss the implementation of the second phase of President Trump’s Gaza plan and UN Security Council Resolution 2803. The meeting, attended by senior Palestinian officials, focused on solidifying the ceasefire, expediting humanitarian aid to Gaza, and launching the transition process under the new Peace Council led by President Trump. Al-Sheikh reiterated that Gaza is an integral part of Palestine and stressed the importance of reconnecting Gaza’s institutions with the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, emphasizing a single legal framework and authorized weapons. The discussion also covered the role of the Palestinian administrative committee and security forces, ensuring their integration with the Palestinian Authority as the legitimate sovereign body. The Palestinian side reaffirmed the necessity of Israel’s complete withdrawal from Gaza, the end of Hamas’s rule, the surrender of its weapons, and the launch of reconstruction efforts in line with Trump’s plan and the UN resolution. Al-Sheikh called for an immediate transitional plan in Gaza, alongside urgent measures to halt unilateral actions violating international law—particularly settlement expansion, settler violence, and the release of frozen Palestinian funds. Palestine welcomed Trump’s plan and expressed readiness to cooperate in achieving peace, aiming for a future where Palestine and Israel live side by side in peaceful coexistence. #gaza#palestine#trump#peace#diplomacy 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸

🔤🔤🔤🔤2️⃣ Reuven Hazan, a political science professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, said that Netanyahu clearly wanted to give voters time to be distracted by other pressing matters. “And hopefully for him, the people of Israel are stupid enough and short enough of memory that they won’t remember all of this,” Hazan said. Yohanan Plesner, president of the Israel Democracy Institute, said he believed Netanyahu wanted time for the Israeli public to vent its rage over a new ultra-Orthodox draft exemption but then also to get over it, and for the discussion to shift to other topics. “It’s difficult,” Plesner said. “But if Netanyahu decides that the coalition needs to pass it, it will probably pass.” Netanyahu went along with the Trump peace plan for Gaza, but he has never sounded like a big believer in it, telling Israelis that he is giving it time to play out but that Hamas will have to have its arms forcibly seized if it does not lay them down voluntarily. The Israeli public is generally with him on that, polls show. A majority of Israelis expect that war with Hamas will resume within a year. Exhausted as Israelis are, the freeing of their hostages — whose captivity fueled protests demanding an end to the war out of fear for their survival — could reduce opposition to an eventual return to war, analysts say. But Israel’s continued strikes in Gaza since the cease-fire appear to have angered the Trump administration, which wants to extend and build on the truce, not jeopardize it. Similarly, Israel’s military actions in Lebanon and Syria appear at odds with the Trump administration’s efforts to stabilize governments in both countries. Trump has repeatedly shown impatience with Netanyahu. And he could use their meeting on Monday to squeeze the Israeli leader on some or all of these fronts. Netanyahu is expected to urge Trump to back him in continuing to apply pressure to Iran, which Israeli officials say is rebuilding its missile arsenal. It is Gaza that poses the most intriguing set of choices. Netanyahu’s refusal so far to allow a role in Gaza for the Palestinian Authority, which administers parts of the occupied West Bank and is a bitter rival of Hamas, is making it difficult for the Trump administration to assemble many of the components of his plan. Those include an International Stabilization Force, a technocratic committee of Palestinians to run Gaza and a supervising Board of Peace. Arab and European countries whose participation the Trump administration is seeking want the Palestinian Authority involved. Netanyahu’s oft-stated determination to prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state is deterring countries that want assurances that their assistance in disarming Hamas and rebuilding Gaza will lead to a renewed effort to establish a state, not just to a renewed cycle of violence a few years down the road. While the Saudis have indicated that they are nowhere near ready to establish diplomatic ties with Israel, if Trump seeks to enlist Netanyahu in winning them over, the Israeli leader could face a legacy-defining choice. #netanyahu#trump#israel#gaza#syria#palestine 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸

Netanyahu Meets Trump: Gaza Is at Stake Over Again 🔤🔤🔤🔤1️⃣ Netanyahu has been prime minister of Israel for so long that nearly everyone knows how he governs. He delays decisions. He keeps options open for as long as possible and creates new ones whenever he can. He wears down, outwaits and outlasts his adversaries — as well as his ostensible allies. He turns crises — including some of his own creation — into opportunities he can defuse, for a price. But events are lining up in a way that may tax even his well-documented ability to stretch out tough decisions and shape them to his advantage. Netanyahu’s criminal trial on charges of bribery and fraud is inexorably advancing. Trump’s peace plan for Gaza is inching along toward a difficult Phase 2, and tensions are building with the White House over Israel’s actions in Syria and Lebanon. The pressure on him is mounting from every direction. That includes from the Israeli right, Netanyahu’s political base, which is agitating for him to pursue annexation of the Israeli-occupied West Bank despite Trump’s warnings that doing so would trigger a harsh U.S. response. On each of these fronts, 2026 is shaping up as a momentous year for Mr. Netanyahu, 76, and for the country he has represented for the better part of three decades. He is almost certainly going to have to make a series of decisions with great consequence — for Israeli society and security, for Palestinians, and for the broader Middle East. As he prepares to meet Trump in Florida on Monday, and as Israel awaits an election at some point in 2026, here is a look at some of his pivotal choices ahead. If he wants to maintain his decades-old political alliance with Israel’s ultra-Orthodox Jewish community, one of Netanyahu’s first tasks is to try to meet its demand for a law granting yeshiva students a new exemption from the draft, after an old exemption expired and the Supreme Court ruled in 2024 that they were legally obligated to serve. A new exemption would be wildly unpopular with the vast majority of Israelis, who have been exhausted by the Gaza war’s demands on conscripts and reservists alike over the past two years. If Parliament does not enact the exemption, his government could collapse, precipitating elections early next year. Analysts say Netanyahu wants to delay elections for as long as possible, hoping that his standing in the polls will improve the further Israel gets from the Hamas-led Oct. 7, 2023, attack, which happened on his watch. #netanyahu#trump#israel#gaza#syria#palestine 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸
