Steve Witkoff, the U.S. special envoy leading talks with Moscow, has reportedly told Trump that the fastest way to broker a ceasefire in Ukraine is to “support a strategy” wherein Kyiv cedes “ownership” of the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia regions (none of which Moscow full controls). https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-envoys-embrace-russian-demands-174228771.html?fr=sycsrp%5Fcatchall
The Reuters report doesn’t even mention Crimea, which Moscow annexed eight years before it laid claim on those other four eastern regions of Ukraine. I guess Washington feels no need to debate who “owns” that peninsula.
