This political cartoon features a smiling Donald Trump with his arms around an exasperated-looking Volodymyr Zelenskyy and a smug-looking Vladimir Putin. Zelenskyy says “I heard rumors of you two negotiating a land transfer! I will not give up any land!” Trump says, “Relax, I’m giving the land of Alaska back to Putin! And besides, Putin says he wants peace in Ukraine! Right, Vlad?” Putin responds, “Da, I want a piece of Ukraine.”
