Summary:

A meeting between Trump and Zelensky, focusing on the clash between their political needs and negotiating styles. It argues that Trump, driven by a desire to showcase his deal-making prowess to his base, underestimated Zelensky's awareness of Ukraine's precarious position. Zelensky, needing to avoid being seen as conceding too much to Russia and the US, strategically provoked Trump into publicly rejecting the proposed agreement. The author interprets this as a calculated move by Zelensky to gain leverage and time, highlighting the power dynamics between a strong nation and a weaker one, drawing parallels to historical events and China's strategic thinking.
