Richard Grenell, who if Donald Trump wins the election of US President may become Secretary of State, advocates a peaceful settlement of the war in Ukraine, providing for the creation of autonomous zones.
Bloomberg journalists report this.

—Autonomous regions can mean many things to many people, but we need to work out these details, — Bloomberg reports the words of a Trump ally on the sidelines of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
Grenell did not go into what exactly he means by autonomous zones, but the agency indicated that it refers to the eastern regions of Ukraine, which are significantly occupied by Russian troops.
He also does not believe that Ukraine should be accepted into NATO in the coming years.
Bloomberg noted that Richard Grenell has repeatedly emphasized that he does not speak on behalf of Donald Trump himself and has not discussed such issues with him.
At the same time, he is generally considered to be a candidate for the post of United States Secretary of State if Trump wins a second term, so his views provide insight into the approach Trump may take during his presidency.
