1. Lovely. Get in bed with Putin, forsake our western allies so the democratic world crumbles, then have Putin snatch our entire lunch when its convenient. What a great world we’re leaving our children.

2. The US has used all its sticks possible with Russia short of war, now it’s trying carrots. Potential deals like this promoting the upside help sell peace. As much as Russia is a boogeyman right now they are a fact of life, and working towards peaceful coexistence is a good thing. Ukraine isn’t going to march into Moscow, let alone Sevastopol, same as Russia won’t march into Kiev. Deals like this help sell the upside and give Russia an off day ramp

3. So, Ostpolitik with Trumpian characteristics?
