Browder: Trump-Putin deal trades Ukraine leverage for Russian oil access

Bill Browder alleges the Trump administration struck a deal with Putin that sacrifices Ukraine's negotiating leverage in exchange for cheaper diesel and a stake in a Russian oil giant. The claim is an opinion piece, not corroborated by official statements, and the specifics of the deal remain unverified. If true, it would mark a significant reversal in US policy toward Russia and Ukraine, potentially altering the conflict's trajectory.
