Description

There’s no shortage of negotiations about how to end the war in Ukraine. Tomorrow, Russian President Vladimir Putin is set to meet with US envoy Steve Witkoff. And today, the Ukrainian leader met with French President Emmanuel Macron. Still, peace itself remains elusive, despite reports that Russia is offering enticements to the US, including access to multibillion-dollar rare-earth minerals and energy resources. Former US Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul discusses the implications with The World’s Host Marco Werman.
