So he's pushing back on Putin here. The significant change, though, is that as far as the Biden administration was concerned, it was about Ukraine winning, even if it was totally unrealistic that they would win. They've been basically along the same battle lines for three years now. But the West and the U.S., the strategy was to basically bleed Russia out.

And in talking to NATO officials, they found that to be extremely successful, that this has really been a suck for for Putin, that he's reliant on some technologies and weapons from the 1950s, on the Iranians, on the North Koreans. Nonetheless, the Trump approach is different, not to basically have this war go on in perpetuity here, but to end it.

He sees himself as a dealmaker, looking for talks here between Zelensky and Putin. Now, what's unclear is what sort of deal he can come to here. Remember, Putin claims that all of Ukraine is his. He occupies 20% of Ukraine. He's reluctant to walk back on any of that territory, in particular, these regions he's taken over that are very Russian-speaking regions of Ukraine.

And then you have Zelensky, who doesn't want to give up an inch of territory here, but is probably willing to if he gets security guarantees, like he gets to be part of NATO, which means in the future, if Putin tries to invade Ukraine again and take even more territory, NATO would come to bail him out because he'd be part of the alliance.

Now, that's not something Trump is keen to do either, and certainly not something Putin would allow. So what is going to be the magic deal here? What's going to be the compromise here? as he tries to apply pressure on both the Ukrainians by giving them less in the way of weaponry and aid, but then also put pressure on the Russians by promising tariffs, sanctions, and other threats.

What is rhetoric here? What's the final deal going to look like? In terms of these economic sanctions on Russia, particularly tariffs, in the first 11 months of last year, the U.S. imported less than $3 billion worth of Russian goods. That's one tenth of one percent of U.S. imports coming from Russia. Now, that is down significantly over the last couple of years since Russia first invaded Ukraine.

So it's not clear how much of an impact tariffs and these other measures would have on Russia here. Now, remember, Putin and Trump have a unique relationship, interesting relationship. According to Bob Woodward reporting, they spoke a number of times while Trump was out of office here. Putin has congratulated Trump for his victory. He says he wants long term peace. But what are the terms?
