NEW: European leaders may soon hold direct talks with Vladimir Putin and could offer him two paths to peace in Ukraine, according to a Financial Times column by Gideon Rachman.
The first would freeze the war on the current front line in exchange for a guarantee that Ukraine never joins NATO.
The second would see Ukraine give up the rest of the Donbas but then join the alliance.
Rachman writes that European capitals increasingly reject leaving talks with Putin to Washington alone, citing frustration with Trump’s approach.
He adds that Europeans are much less confident Putin would accept either option.

Here’s what makes the President’s Daily Brief so important. CIA analysts may connect warning signs scattered across the world, but the president still has to decide what to do. Before 9/11, alarming clues kept coming. Could better intelligence sharing have saved lives? #CIA #PDB #NationalSecurity

Three years before 9/11, the CIA warned President Clinton that bin Laden’s terrorist network stretched across 60 countries. Think about that. America’s enemies were already operating globally. The lesson? U.S. intelligence can’t protect America by watching our borders alone. #CIA #Geopolitics #Counterterrorism

Russia has reportedly planned to launch ground operations in Ukraine to seize control of key areas and force the country into submission very soon.
Moscow says it will deploy its full military force to compel Kyiv to surrender within a week.
Russia also says that if European countries won’t stop helping Kyiv against Moscow, they will be treated with iron hand.
