The world must sidestep Donald Trump.
I feel like they're pretty ahead of you. I doubt that anyone in Ukraine or EU is taking Trump's opinion on the "peace deal" or the war all that seriously. They can't just openly ignore him, just because the US is still providing a ton of weapons, but I would be very surprised if they're taking him seriously.
Yes, how dare they invade a sovereign nation and have their state TV call for exterminating every single one of its population, and threaten people with nuclear weapons, because those countries committed the sin of maybe joining a defense alliance which would make it more difficult for them to do those things without getting their nose bloodied for it. Or, wait, that was fine. You were talking about the other guys? Yeah, those guys. I get it.
Russia had no choice, at the end of the day. It's from the "I didn't mean to break her arm but she said she was gonna call the cops on me and you know I can't have that shit" school of enlightened statecraft.
