I see a better parallel with the partition of Poland in Molotov-Ribbentrop pact with these talks. The Munich Agreement was the Minsk agreements and letting russia have Crimea.

…upenn.edu/…/presidential-pardons-explained
Tried to educate myself on what the pardon consists of…and found that there is no real separation between the executive branch and the judicial branch, because prosecution is up to the executive branch and the president can pardon whomever e.g. “For instance, George Washington pardoned participants in the Whisky Rebellion, in part because they enjoyed considerable popular support.”
Meaning, you are above the law if you are popular, president or rioter.
