Representatives from Russia and Ukraine will be in meetings to try to hammer out details of a ceasefire on Monday. But peace is still a long way off.
For starters it's only a partial ceasefire—no strikes on energy infrastructure. It's only for 30 days.
And the Ukrainians and Russians aren't even meeting with each other. The U.S. will be a go-between.
One of the biggest things working against a new agreement, is what happened after Ukraine's last agreement with Russia. And the ones before that.
Ukraine says it won't trust a promise from Russia. It needs security guarantees. To understand why, you've got to go back to the birth of independent Ukraine.

Pod Save America - Trump Comes for the Judges
With a Republican Congress bending to Trump’s every whim, the judicial branch is the last check on his power—and now he, Elon, and the MAGA regime have decided to wage war against it. Meanwhile, Trump wants to ax the Department of Education and is going after colleges he doesn’t like. Jon and Dan break down Trump’s latest (probably illegal) moves, check in with the DOGE-bags, and dig into Trump’s broader effort to dismantle the federal government. Then they dive into a new 2024 post-mortem from Blue Rose Research, revealing who voted—and why.
