Summary

Advisers to Donald Trump acknowledge that resolving the Ukraine war could take months, contradicting Trump’s campaign pledge of a “Day One” peace deal.

Trump’s incoming envoy, Keith Kellogg, suggested a 100-day target, but analysts consider even that timeline overly optimistic.

Russia has shown limited interest in proposed peace plans, and Trump’s team is contemplating freezing battle lines and offering Ukraine security guarantees.

Progress has been slow, hampered by diplomatic complexities and legal concerns, such as Kellogg postponing a pre-inauguration Kyiv visit due to the Logan Act.
