    1. A top Trump official has said the new US administration will threaten Russia’s fuel sector to force President Vladimir Putin into a deal to end the war in Ukraine.

      Robert Wilkie, who leads President Donald Trump’s transition team, said Trump intended to call Putin and press him to end the three-year conflict.

      This depends on Putin playing ball here, even if the deal is favorable to Russia. Ending the war immediately will lead to a recession for Russia, which could be pretty bad fueled by international sanctions.

      This is then met by the unpredictability of Trump, who may take it as a personal slight if Russia tries to extend the deadline to buffer its economy from the impact. In classic Trump faction, he’d probably turn into Ukraine’s biggest supporter and give them a blank check.
