🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡️ — The Trump administration is considering the possibility of entering into business deals with Russia even before the end of the war in Ukraine, according to The New York Times, citing sources.

According to the newspaper, Washington wants to show Moscow the seriousness of its intentions to restart relations and create additional incentives for the Russian elite to end the war. The specific deals being considered are currently unknown.

This approach differs from Trump's previous position, who stated that deals with Russia were only possible after the end of the war, the NYT notes.

The newspaper claims that during a recent meeting in the Kremlin, Putin told Witcoff and Kushner that Russia would seize all of Donbas within a few months and would be able to inflict heavy blows on Ukrainian energy infrastructure. Kushner responded by reminding Putin that he had said the same thing a year ago: "What are the chances that we'll come back here in a year and you'll say the same thing again? Maybe we shouldn't waste a year?"

The publication also reminds readers that Congress has passed a bill on "hellish" sanctions against Russia.

"But if the Trump administration is taking a carrot-and-stick approach to Putin, it appears that the emphasis is on the carrot," the article states.
