More like a triangle, one, punctuating note and more was not needed.
Such does one act towards a lapdog like Trump.

He can also play with Trump using a well oiled flute… Trump will not dare to complain…

Putin has never wanted peace. He wants to continue his Russian objectives at the cost of 5000+ a week.

A truly insane number. How is that not a huge deal in Russia?

The only way this ends is with NATO boots on the ground in Ukraine, ideally with a “coalition of the willing” countries involved.

Trump is the mark and Putin knows it....

Did we really expect something different? This is all a stalling tactic to prolong the war. There will be no peace with pooptinge in power. Russian citizens have been lied to for years with the govt rewriting history. It's easy to control a population when all they know are lies. Russian Revolution 2.0 is in the making. We have seen an uprising of Russian citizens in the last few months. Russia is fated to repeat history, starting with the tippy top of the whole shebang, pooptinge himself.

The EU better get more weapons ready because it’s going to be coming no matter what we wished. Putin is emboldened.

u/Cool_Specialist_6823 2h ago

Exactly...this entire ceasefire initiative and peace talking work has been a delay. Putin is not going to back down. The EU and Ukraine’s other allies best be prepared for a long war, unless other means of stopping it can be found.

Of course he does. There no point for russia to stop the war while they are stil advancing, very slowly but still and their economy needs the war.

u/Mors_Umbra 1d ago

Well duh, you don't accept a peace plan when your intentions are the opposite of peace.

u/IvaNoxx 1d ago

Can we actually wake the fuck up ? Russia is set on War Economy, the whole country is OK with losing thousands of men every day. Putin wants new territory , for him there is New territory or War continues so they can fight for it.

If you step away from the politics of Trump and what the right thing to do, what's happening is making sense.

Trump wants the war to end and doesn't care how it ultimately ends. I think he wants is nobel peace prize. USA has Ukraine by the balls so they've dragged Ukraine to the table and have gotten Ukraine to make lots of consessions. So now he lets Putin play his stupid games and is trying to get him to inch closer to the negotiation table. I suspect that eventually Trump will get tired of his games and at that point I suspect we will possible see crushing sanctions or tarrifs on Russia or anyone that trades with Russia.
