BlockBeats News: On November 26th, a Financial Times article pointed out that 2025 has been seen as a window for the United States to push for some kind of ceasefire in Ukraine for several months. Considering Russia's military progress, it is by no means clear whether Putin wants to stop military actions. Trump has multiple options to choose from, and he may propose lifting sanctions on Russia in exchange for freezing the current military map. Alternatively, he could escalate the situation and then ease it, giving Putin a reason to make concessions. Unlike Biden, Trump is unpredictable. This means that there may be terrible mistakes - such as the United States abandoning Ukraine and Zelensky stepping down. Or there may be unexpected consequences: Putin may deepen his relationship with Trump by offering better deals. (Golden Ten)
