The former CIA analyst, Paul Goble, criticizes the plan proposed by the Trump administration for Ukraine, considering it a set of unilateral concessions to Moscow, which will not lead to a sustainable solution to the conflict. In an interview, Goble emphasizes that stopping the fighting does not equate to solving the problems and that Ukrainians will not accept such a plan.
He suggests that the motivations of the American administration are political and domestic, with Trump wanting to demonstrate submission to Putin, but also to avoid controversies in Congress. Goble warns that if Washington forces Kiev to accept these concessions, it will generate deep resentment in Ukraine, severely affecting bilateral relations. He concludes that this plan does not represent a true peace agreement and could turn the initiative into a political fiasco.
