As @samagreene.bsky.social points, out, the investments economic agreements Zelenskyy says that Putin is offering the US would be about 5 times the size of Russian GDP www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...

Zelensky says Russia is proposing huge economic deals with U.S.

The Ukrainian president said the Trump administration was pushing for a June deadline to end Russia’s war.

NY Times has been announcing the fall of Pokrovsk regularly since mid-2024. Maybe they are right this time, but it would be good practice to admit previous errors.
