Professor Andrea Schneider spoke to Business Insider to discuss the Oval Office negotiations between President Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and ultimatums that Trump gave to Ukraine.
Schneider told BI that the ultimatum suggested Trump was not the "magical negotiator" some say he is.
“The last thing you do is give the other party all the cards,” Schneider said. “In whatever the negotiation, why would Russia give Ukraine anything? Why would Russia give us anything? How is this possibly making the United States stronger?”
