Donald Trump has appointed Keith Kellogg as a special envoy to Ukraine and Russia with the aim of ending the war.
Kellogg, by hurrying negotiations, has incentivized Putin to raise his negotiation conditions.
Russia maintains an offensive posture and has intensified pressure on Ukraine with the help of North Korea.
Putin has issued a nuclear threat and sends a warning to European allies.
Zelenski is willing to yield territories occupied by Russia in exchange for Ukraine's admission to NATO.
Trump's foreign policy may not result in solid NATO support for Ukraine.
The worst scenario would be Ukraine being forced to cede territory without getting assistance from Washington, similar to what happened in Czechoslovakia in 1938.

Conclusion: The current situation raises serious concerns about the future of Ukraine and Europe, and requires a solid and united response from European allies and NATO.
