Top NATO commander warns about Trump's quick-fix Ukraine plan

At Prague defence summit NATOʼs top military leader made strong statements about US future policy. Adml Rob Bauer warned that letting Putin win in Ukraine would damage Americas interests

It is connected to the ambitions of Russia and indirectly the ambitions of China

Adml Rob Bauer stated

The Kremlins spokesman showed positive reaction to Donald Trumpʼs deal-making approach; after his win in elections last week. Trumpʼs team looks at an idea to stop fighting where troops are now - creating peace-keeper zone thatʼs 800-miles long

Russian forces (including North Korean soldiers) have gathered near Kursk with about 50k troops. US intel shows theyʼve been using missiles and guns but havent started big attacks yet. Ukrainian military expects North-Korean units to join combat soon

Trump Jr made fun of Ukraineʼs leader on social-media saying US money support will end. His fatherʼs choice to not pick Mike Pompeo - who supports sending more help to Ukraine - for his team shows possible policy changes. During his first time as president Trump wasnʼt happy with NATO; saying Europe should pay more for its defence instead of counting on US help

The NATO chiefs main point was that Ukraine matters for world order: North Koreaʼs switch from being cut-off to helping Russia creates issues for America. He thinks its impossible to fix Ukraine problem without looking at bigger picture - including Chinaʼs role in all this
