[pseudony]

Because every other agreement we have made with him on tariffs or Ukraine, every other appeasement, has done nothing to sway him from his actual course.

Contrary to popular thinking (and it is a nicer fantasy), he is not an inconsistent, emotionally manipulated short-termist with no attention-span.

He is actually smarter than we thought (or wanted to think) OR someone actually is a bona-fide Trump whisperer.

His main foreign policy aims and beliefs seem remarkably fixed.

All of this to say, no further appeasement. No need to completely undermine the Nobel peace price also for 5 minutes of respite, he will literally be back to this within a fortnight.
