to discuss how to create conditions for a cease-fire and ultimately an agreement to stop the killing. If history is our guide, negotiations for peace will take weeks, months, or perhaps years, to get Ukraine and its allies to agree on a negotiating strategy—and even longer to come to an agreement with Russia after negotiations begin.
the first time negotiators from both nations met face-to-face. Formal negotiations opened three days later, but immediately came to a standstill. The Paris Peace Accords officially ended U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, although the majority of U.S. troops would not leave until August 1973 and the fighting between North and South Vietnam continued until April 30, 1975, when North Vietnamese Army tanks rolled through the gate of the Presidential Palace in Saigon, South Vietnam, effectively ending the war. Millions of Vietnamese and tens of thousands of U.S. military were killed during the years of negotiations.
Three days later Hanoi announced that it was prepared to talk to the Americans. Discussions began in Paris on May 13 but led nowhere. Hanoi insisted that, before serious negotiations could begin, the United States would have to halt its bombing of the rest of Vietnam. After winning the 1968 election, President Richard Nixon, with his National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger, decided to follow the Tet offensive with a “maximum pressure” campaign with increased U.S. bombing of North Vietnam and Cambodia which ended up with large death counts of North Vietnamese, South Vietnamese, and Cambodians, as well as U.S. milita+ry.
Figuring out how to make the cease-fire be effective will be the key task. Despite its less than stellar track record, the U.S. as a co-belligerent should work with the Ukrainian government to figure out effective cease-fire measures.

Russia's improved weaponry and tactics pose challenges to Ukraine's counteroffensiveAs Ukrainian troops probe Russian defenses, Kyiv’s forces face an enemy that has made mistakes and suffered setbacks in the 15-month-old war. But Moscow also has learned from those blunders and improved its weapons and skills. Russia has built heavily fortified defenses along the more than 1,000-kilometer (600-mile) front line, honed its electronic weapons to reduce Ukraine’s edge in combat drones and used its massive Cold-War-era arsenal of heavy bombs to turn them into precision-guided gliding munitions capable of striking targets without putting its warplanes at risk. That could threaten to turn the fight into a long battle of attrition.
