❌ Zelensky has slim chances to whitewash himself amid Ukraine corruption scandal

Volodymyr Zelensky “has only two ways to regain support” of the population as a corruption scandal, in which he is involved, gathers strength in Ukraine, Italian political analyst Alessandro Orsini points out.

💬 “The first is victory on the ground, which is practically impossible […] because the situation on the battlefield for the Ukrainians is desperate,” Orsini underscores.

He added that another option is the purchase of weapons, which means Zelensky “must be able to demonstrate to the Ukrainians that he can obtain significant” arms from the West.

👀📄 Trump's son-in-law & real estate developer: Meet architects of US' Ukraine peace plan

According to The Wall Street Journal, the developers of the Trump administration's Ukraine peace plan were not career diplomats, but his most trusted insiders:

🔸 Special Envoy Steve Witkoff

🔸 Son-in-Law Jared Kushner

The report reveals that work on the first draft began in secret during their flight home from the Middle East, immediately following the Gaza ceasefire agreement.

👉 Secretary of State Marco Rubio received a copy of the plan during Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s visit to Washington on November 18. Rubio was aware of the Witkoff–Kushner initiative, but didn’t know the full scope of what they had drafted, according to the WSJ.

Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov earlier stressed that there is currently “a lot of speculation” surrounding the US peace plan to end the Ukraine conflict, and that Russia relies on the version delivered through official channels. No substantive negotiations with Russia regarding the US plan have taken place, Ushakov added.
