Why the oval office of the office played a decisive role in Trump’s view for Ukraine

Russia has occupied a fifth of the Ukrainian territory – and a large map showing that a large map that was shadowed in the Oval office was as if emphasizing this point for President Donald Trump’s talks with Lodz Zelensky on Monday.

“I suppose you all saw the map,” Trump said on Tuesday Fox News. “The large piece of territory is taken and this area was taken.”

A message from the White House to Ukraine is unmistakable. This land has gone, and it was time to consider a territorial compromise with Vladimir Putin, or, as some named, land swaps.

Zelensky’s team brought its own card to the meeting, and the Ukrainian leader said he later “fought that he was on this map” while talking to Trump regarding “who controls what is not in other people’s but in reality.”

Although he felt that he had advanced to correct any false experiences, Trump’s discretion was the same. It was clear that he said that Russia’s power was “so much more powerful and you know that it was not the way they stopped.”

Asked what the feeling was in the room with European leaders regarding the Svop of Earth, he replied: “Now they are talking about the Donbass, but Donbas is now … 79% belong and controlled by Russia.”

Before the war began in the East in 2014, the wealthy mining region of Ukraine was about 16% of Ukraine’s economic production.

Putin is reported to have said Trump that he wants the entire Donbass region as part of a broad peace deal.

This will certainly save the Russian leader a considerable amount of blood and treasures.

Zelensky stated that he also argued about the interest on the White House map, which showed Russian control in a number of Ukrainian regions, starting 99% Luhansk and 76% of Donetsk in Donbass; 73% Zaporizhzhia and Kherson in the southeast; 4% in Kharkiva in the northeast; and 1% in Sumy and Mykolaiv.

Analysis of the latest data from the American Institute of War has led to similar figures with the White House, and any differences can be reduced to different methodologies, especially within the Russian control. The part may be under limited control or simply stated by Moscow.

In areas where the White House suggests that 1% of the region is under Russian control, which can only reflect the fact that the Russians have a certain presence, as in Nicholas in the south, or where they were largely repelled as in the north.

Regardless of the true figure for Russian control in Donetsk, the cities of Kramators and the neighboring Slavyansk in the Donetsk region, they still live for the large population.

Local officials say about 242,000 people live in the Ukrainian districts of Donetsk, and no head of state would have considered the transfer of their territory to Moscow.

Despite the fact that the Russian forces have succeeded in recent months, ISW believes that the hobby of the rest of the Donetsk region is most likely to take several years after several complex companies. “

Zelensky stated that the Ukrainian map he showed, Trump showed over the last 1000 days so that Russia managed to occupy less than 1% of the Ukrainian territory.

Analysts from the DeepStateu Group of Ukraine stated that since November 2022 translated by 5 842 km.

While Russia has achieved prompt success in the early days of a full -scale invasion, Deepstate notes a large share of the occupied territory.

However, Russia has achieved indisputable achievements over the last two months, even if the front line has changed little since the first months of the war.

The defense analyst Konrad Music, headed by Roconsalting, says the Russian advance has clearly accelerated in some parts of the East around Kupinsk in the Kharkiv and Kremin region in Lugansk.

“We see much more fires, and Ukrainians really can’t deploy enough firefighters to bring them out,” he said to the BBC.

The music refers to the lack of Ukrainian labor to protect the long line of the front, but also the Russian strengthening of the use of drones aimed at soldiers, their equipment and especially their artillery.

Meanwhile, Russia was able to gain 30-35,000 soldiers, and even with the great losses they suffered on the ground, they were able to create large operational and strategic reserve forces, he says.

But Russia’s fast profit in limited areas of the East has not yet been in different places.

One of the attempts of Russian land took 10-15 km into the territory controlled by Ukrainian, near the good in the Donetsk region, successfully affected the Ukrainian forces last week, Ukrainian military leaders reported.

Although Russia contains some pockets of land in the Sumi and Kharki regions, Ukraine still controls approximately 6,600 km.

Putin not only made claims against the wide hiding of Ukraine, he has already annexed four regions, as well as Crimea, although many areas are unavailable.

The UK defense update recently estimated that it is based only on the Russian “gradual battle advances in 2025”, which will take another 4.4 years to capture four regions of Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporozhye and Kherson.

Only this explains the different perspectives of Trump and Zelensky when it comes to cards showing 1200 km of the front in Ukraine.

“Thank you for the map, by the way, it was great,” he told him, despite their differences, “I think how to return her.”
