Trump plans dual deal with Putin to end Ukraine and Iran wars

President Donald Trump plans to use negotiations with Russia to end both the war in Ukraine and the conflict with Iran, according to The Telegraph. Trump views talks with Moscow as the best path to conclude both wars quickly. Trump could offer Putin a favorable deal on Ukraine, with the Russian leader then using his ties to Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which Tehran closed after US-Israeli strikes on February 28. Trump said the agreement would be "big" and could involve all of Europe, though he gave no details. European leaders reportedly fear Trump may push Kyiv to accept a deal favoring Moscow, with some preparing for a possible US proposal to "sacrifice" Ukraine. Gulf mediators believe Washington and Tehran are close to a nuclear agreement, but Iran may need Russian persuasion to finalize it.
