From The Guardian: Late last night, U.S. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll briefed NATO representatives, saying, “No deal is perfect, but it must be done sooner rather than later.” With one NATO representative saying “It was a nightmare meeting. It was the ‘you have no cards’ argument again,”
Trump on whats happening:
From the Guardian: Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said Ukraine faces one of the most difficult moments in its history, after Donald Trump demanded Kyiv accepts within days a US-backed “peace plan” that would force it to give up territory to Russia and make other painful concessions.
Trump confirmed on Friday morning that next Thursday – Thanksgiving in the US – would be an “acceptable” deadline for Zelenskyy to sign the deal, which European and Ukrainian officials have said amounts to a “capitulation”.
