Graham insists on the need to further arm Ukraine, although Trump has already refused to provide free assistance.
Ukraine will not be able to expel the Russians from all of its territory, but Russia is also not capable of seizing new significant territories. Therefore, the peace agreement will provide for a certain format of mutual territorial concessions . Republican Senator Lindsey Graham expressed this opinion in an interview with NBC News .
Thus, the senator essentially confirmed Donald Trump’s recent statement that the peace agreement will provide for a certain format for the exchange of territories controlled by the Russian Federation and Ukraine.
“I want to be honest with you, Ukraine is not going to kick all the Russians out [of its territory], and Russia is not going to get to Kyiv. So there will be some land swaps at the end,” Graham said.
In doing so, he appealed to the history of the division of Germany following the Second World War, when even the city of Berlin existed in a divided state for more than 30 years.
To this, the journalist reminded Graham of his own statement from 2023, in which he said that wars cannot be ended by giving territory to the aggressor, and that Russia’s concessions in Ukraine will inspire the Kremlin to new wars, including against NATO.Read also:
To this, Graham responded that continued military aid to Ukraine would guarantee peace in Europe, because in such a scenario, “Russia would be contained by the most lethal army on the European continent, which is Ukraine.”
According to him, security guarantees should also include the fact that if the Russians invade Ukraine again, they will meet not only the Ukrainian army, but also “European forces on the ground.” In addition, Graham is convinced that the “mineral agreement” between Kiev and Washington will also somehow guarantee Ukraine’s security, because “President Trump will protect these interests.”

You can not give away whats not yours. And what Russian oblasts gets Ukraine in return, otherwise there is no swap? Another pro-Russian………..
Graham is every bit as ignorant in military matters as his orange master. They are also completely ignorant in international laws. They shine with stupidity.
Graham is nothing more than a parrot. He doesn’t have an original thought in his head. Whatever TACO says, Graham agrees with, it’s safer than having TACO throw a baby tantrum.
