‘Witkoff needs a psychiatrist’: Europeans fume at Trump’s plan to profit from frozen Russian assets
Diplomats and officials react with outrage to new details of the U.S. peace plan, warning it could wreck their efforts to help Ukraine survive the war.
www.politico.eu
The Trump administration has designs on frozen russian assets, with $100 billion to “be invested in U.S.-led efforts for Ukraine’s reconstruction and investment,” with the U.S. extorting 50% of profits. An official from an EU government resorted to colourful swearing to express their disgust.

The U.S. ambassador to Canada has a bully complex, like his president. Canadian sentiment against him is growing. Expelling Hoekstra would end Trump-Carney relations and a fair trade deal with the U.S. At what point does Canada decide that Mr. Hoekstra has worn out his welcome? #CdnPoli 🇨🇦

Russian dictator Vladimir Putin threatened President Trump not to send Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine in a phone call set in motion by White House special envoy Steve Witkoff (who was coaching the russians how to engage Trump) right before Trump’s meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

"Trump’s personal envoy, Steve 'Dim Philby' Witkoff, and Kirill Dmitriev, a businessman close to Russian President Vladimir Putin – has much in common with the surrender terms Mr. Putin offered to Mr. Zelensky almost four years ago, at the start of the Russian invasion."
(Dim Philby is my edit).
(Dim Philby is my edit).
The Witkoff-Dmitriev plan puts Zelensky in a familiar spot. He can accept Moscow’s terms, or Ukraine can keep fighting a war few think it can win.
It’s the same choice Ukrainians faced in February 2022 - so don’t expect the answer from Kyiv to be any different this time.
My analysis

U.S. peace plan for Ukraine bears strong resemblance to Putin’s terms
