I agree w the 🧵, but I don't think these concessions would get a deal. This is the baseline for Ru and once Ukraine/West accepts it, Ru will ask for more to finalize the deal-- domestic Ukr legislation dictated by Ru, Zelensky out and a mechanism for installing a Ru puppet asap; Ru's goal isn't...
If Kyiv gave Putin land he didn't conquer, agreed to destroy its military and we dropped all sanctions against Russia in exchange for Putin's pinky promise not to kill any more Ukrainians, we could get a deal with Moscow

Russia is selling oil at $34, gutting budget revenues. Deficits are funded by massive bond issuance, draining bank liquidity forcing permanent central bank support. Deposits are leaving, defaults & restructurings are rising, real spending is falling, civilian output is shrinking.

1. Putin has made no concessions, not even accepting ceasefire.
2. Putin does not recognize the existence of Ukraine:

Or that our chief envoy to Russia won’t take briefings from the CIA?
But wait, there’s more. Much more in this 6-byline WSJ piece on the Witkoff-Putin axis.

It's not because the legal arguments having to do with the seizure of Russian assets weren't understood.
It's that saying that Russia can't lose and, more importantly, that it shouldn't lose, carries implications.
