Critics slam Trump negotiators' approach to Putin over Ukraine

Original: "Appeasement🚨of psychopathic mass murdering dictators never induces them to behave better. Naïveté of # Trump ’s negotia

Commenters are quoting analyst Josh Rogin's criticism of Donald Trump's negotiating team over Ukraine, arguing that appeasing "psychopathic mass murdering dictators" never improves their behavior. The claim follows reports that Ukraine was ready to stop attacks on Russian oil refineries and energy infrastructure, while Putin declined a reciprocal halt on strikes against Ukrainian energy targets. Critics call the administration's approach naïve.

Why now: Reports that Putin refused a mutual halt to energy-infrastructure attacks are renewing criticism of Trump's negotiation strategy.
