IS TRUMP REALLY A GOOD NEGOTIATOR?


Hello Professor Trump,
You claim you are a hard negotiator and that you always make the best deal. Yet, you have already conceded Russia's annexation of Crimea. Now it is unlikely that Ukraine will get Crimea back, but a strong negotiator would not just hand it over before even starting a negotiation. At least you would want a firm commitment and action by Russia that it will not support the rebels in eastern Ukraine and that Ukraine's eastern border is fixed. You might also demand that Russia give a substantial sum of money to Ukraine in return for Crimea. And Russia should understand that any violation of Ukraine's eastern border or of any country on its western border would put the status of Crimea back into question. Also this should be done in consultation with NATO including the Eastern European NATO members.
Otherwise how can you claim to be such a great negotiator?
