Short Summary

In order to rub salt in the wound-the signing of the peace treaty should be hosted by Orbán in Budapest.That would blow fuses all around the European capitals and cement Orbán`s place going forward as the only relevant leader in the EU.

Alexander Mercouris was right. Putin went in Alaska as a proud statesman and came back safe and sound and most importantly Confident.
