Welcome to The Logoff. Today I’m focusing on negotiations between the US and Ukraine, where new developments have immediate ramifications for the war in Europe — and for our understanding of President Donald Trump’s broader foreign policy.

What’s the latest? The US will resume military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine, lifting freezes the administration put in place earlier this month. Ukraine also endorsed a US proposal for a ceasefire, though Russia, critically, has not.

What’s next? After a meeting between the US and Ukraine, Secretary of State Marco Rubio pushed Russia to agree to the ceasefire, and Trump said he would talk this week with Russian President Vladimir Putin ahead of upcoming peace talks.

What’s the big picture for the Ukraine-Russia war?

What did we learn about Trump? This was another example of Trump’s transactional approach to foreign relationships: first cutting off Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for being insufficiently committed to Trump’s peace process, then restoring ties after he acquiesced. This may yield short-term compliance, but it comes at the expense of the nation’s reputation as a trustworthy ally — and encourages the US’s partners to look elsewhere for strategic cooperation.

If you’re in Washington, DC — or anywhere else that’s getting a blast of spring weather — there’s nothing I can recommend online that’s going to be as great as watching the sunset in the new warmth. So please do yourself a favor and enjoy that if you can. If it’s not as nice where you are, or if outside isn’t available, I really enjoyed this short video about a bird sanctuary in India. Have a great night either way, and I’ll see you back here tomorrow.

Welcome to The Logoff. Today we’re focusing on the Trump administration’s new Ukraine policy, a shift with major implications for the war and for the world.

Meanwhile, new Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said it was unrealistic for Ukraine to recover all of the land it has lost since Russia invaded in 2014. Hegseth also said the US would not commit its military to protect Ukraine after the war and that the US would not support Ukraine joining NATO.

How is that different from Biden-era Ukraine policies?

What’s the upside to the new policy? Russia’s war on Ukraine has caused mass casualties and human suffering. A peace deal would end that — if it holds.

What’s the downside? Ukrainians fear a peace deal will be a pause in hostilities, rather than an end to them. They fear that Putin will see that he can use force to gain territory, use the peace deal as a pause to rebuild his military, and then invade again — this time without as much US resistance. Keeping Ukraine out of NATO was also a key Russian priority, and consenting to that and other Putin demands in advance also forfeits US leverage in eventual talks.

Need a reminder that humanity can still do amazing things? Researchers are making progress on vaccines that you can get via nasal spray, with no needles required. It’s a development that could encourage more people to get vaccinated — and even make vaccines more effective.
