Russia cannot move ships into the Black Sea from the Mediterranean during war, and there is nowhere else that they can move ships into the Black Sea from.
So the plan is to have trump declare there is no war, have the Russians station a huge naval force(along with amphibous resources) off the coast of Odessa, and then to attack. They believe they can take Odessa with trump's help, because they were unable to take it without his help.
If trump's "peace" in Ukraine is the peace of the grave, like his Kurdish peace in Syria, once again, no one will respect him. He has a long history of hurting our allies, and helping our enemies. If trump is unable to get NATO membership for Ukraine, the Ukrainians are better off continuing the fight without him. At least they won't have to deal with a major naval attack at Odessa.
