Vladimir Putin addresses Donald Trump’s envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff in the Kremlin, Moscow, Russia, December 2, 2025
EA-Times Radio VideoCast: Witkoff and Kushner Confer with the Kremlin
EA on RTE and Pakistan TV: Real Estate Developer and Trump’s Son-in-Law Visit Putin
I joined Ukraine’s War and Politics 24 on Wednesday for a 49-minute deep dive into the latest on Russia’s invasion.
I begin with the Trump faction working with the Kremlin on an ultimatum to Ukraine, with real estate developer Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law hosted by Vladimir Putin. Can the Administration faction opposed to the collusion, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, maintain support for Kyiv?
I review the backing of the international community, notably Europe, for Ukraine as I dissect the myth of “Russia is winning” — including an examination of Moscow’s growing economic problems — and hail the resistance of the Ukrainian people.
And I examine the corruption scandal engulfing the highest levels of the Zelensky Government, and how the response for justice and accountability could address the betrayal of Ukrainians.
