It's how Trump sees his world - powerful men deciding and dictating what everybody does.Putin and Trump will meet in Alaska to discuss an end to the war. Surely this is pointless without Zelenskyy. A take it or leave it pre packaged deal between Trump and Putin will almost certainly be totally unacceptable to Ukraine and Europe.
Trump's advisers see it as a "way out", Trump divides up the world according to his & Putin's wishes, Zelensky rightly says "no way" then Trump can walk away "I've sorted it but Ukraine has chosen to continue fighting ..." and he'll consider Ukraine the aggressor, stop all support and try and bring Putin back into the Rest of the World.
Starmer will prevaricate and might go as far as considering "Strong Words", (just as long as Trump allows him to).
