3.15. Peace is not his trade

Witkoff: I've been special envoy for almost a year. Donald said: ‘I’ll guide you, just give it a try. no experience needed, you are a wise guy’. so I accepted, though the assignment was not clear. I flew to Moscow, time and over again to discuss the requirements for an early ceasefire Putin said: I’m only in for a win, it is the Donbass that I require so I had to negociate, but I did not find the words to put in. I felt that peace is not my trade. I am trained to develop real estate. I can deal with concrete, but not barther people’s fate. I'm neither willing, nor able, to extinguish a real state. on the second visit Putin seemed more geared to talk and explain. he proposed a peacefull withdrawal of troops from Zaporizhzha and Kherson. it seemed to me a deal was possible and preparations for a summit could be on, but i was not aware the only forces in these cities were soldiers from Ukraine so I reported to trump the nobel peace prize could be within reach. Trump invited Putin to Alaska, claiming ‘I’m the president of peace’, we all know what has become of that remarkable event: Putin rehabilitated, Ukraine frustrated and diplomatic damage without end. I feel that peace is not my trade. I am trained to develop real estate. I can deal with concrete but not barther people’s fate. I'm neither willing nor able to extinguish a real state. my efforts in Gaza seemed to fare a better course, but with Netanyahu we’re riding a dark horse. and Donald still wants to develop the strip as real estate. he does not give a shit about the Gazans fate. so, looking back I see my assignment as a curse. my heart is bleeding, though the job fills my purse. I still find Donald a tremendous guy but president of peace seems to me a far cry. I think that peace is not his trade. he is trained to develop real estate. he can deal with concrete but not barther people’s fate. while his works could extinguish a real state.
