SNYDER: Our entire diplomatic process has been reduced to only two negotiators: president’s son-in-law and president’s friend. They are not diplomats.
You would probably say, “That looks incredibly corrupt,” and you would also say, “That looks like it could never work.”
And it can never work. It won’t work with Ukraine, it won’t work with Iran. In fact, it has already failed with both Ukraine and Iran.
But the deeper problem is that United States cannot help anyone negotiate an end to a war unless United States has clear sense of its own interests.
And Trump administration does not operate on the basis of American interests. It operates on the basis of what is convenient for few people around Trump.
