Trump is now getting frustrated with Putin for not signing an unconditional ceasefire after Putin said from the start there would be no such ceasefire until the causes of the conflict were dealt with. Then there could be a forever ceasefire.
Trump just saying no NATO for Ukraine was never going to be enough but so far that's the only thing his whole team, after 3 months, has come up with.
A real tell-tail that there was never going to be any progress is the fact that Zelensky has made no effort to reverse the no talks between Ukraine with Russia constitutional law he put in place in 2022.
Changing the constitution may well be the ultra-nationalists tripwire for going after Zelensky. That they have threatened to assassinate Zelensky if he looks like dealing with the Russians is well known.
So as for stalling, it may be that everyone is stalling and just allowing the conflict to run it's course.
Ukraine is again fast running out of equipment and money and it looks doubtful Trump is going to go to congress and ask for more. It's looking even more doubtful that even if asked congress will vote for more anyway, just not enough Democrat and neocon congressional voters left.
Great news, the EU/UK have realised (after 3 years) they'll need to talk to Putin after all, but what on earth they're going to say is a mystery.
Presumably they'll tell Putin to get out of Ukraine directly, pay the world gazillions in reparations, and hand himself over to a western high security prison without delay
