Part 3/8:
The prospect of a ceasefire remains fraught with challenges. As President-elect Donald Trump has suggested, an immediate end to the war could be proclaimed, yet the underlying details of such proposals are often vague. Notably, Keith Kellogg, a former Pentagon official, reinforced that for peace talks to begin, the U.S. should continue its military support to Ukraine contingent on its readiness to negotiate with Russia. However, Ukraine, currently reluctant to engage in discussions, fears that any ceasefire could allow Russia to regroup and prepare for a future assault, ultimately undermining their hard-fought gains.
