‘That was then, this is now’ comes to mind
Trump as US president could stop it, but that would require his mental capacity not being that of a 5 year old.
Everyone wants peace except Putin who just 💩 ed on yet another ceasefire attempt and his troops continued to attack and bomb during his own May 8th ceasefire proclamation
It must be awful embarrassing now by this stage for Russian apologists and the neo nazi boot lickers on thread who keep defending Putin and Russia despite everything
Even thickos like Trump are starting to see Putin for the warmongering scumbag who wants to complete the war and genocide he started three years ago
Looking back at Minsk they didn't want all of Ukraine, no at the point they didn't want all of Ukraine because by then they knew that they could not take it all, but the original plan was to take it all, and if they ever can manage to take all of Ukraine, they will do exactly that.
Or as Lavrov says " the new realities of former Ukraine territories now legally annexed and under Russian control" will form a part of any future agreements.
This. RuZZia and Putin think themselves superior to their neighbours, and want it all back ('next stop Berlin.') All of it. If they didn't want it all, why waste a million lives when you're having a demographic crisis?
If RuZZia loses, and Putin is brought to justice in some way, they'll never stop wanting it all back. It'll just bring a pause for some time if the country is brought to heel, broken up as some propose, some sort of government in place that doesn't make its first war on its own people. The RuZZian people imo are inured to the excesses of their government as long as it doesn't bother them, and they have a ridiculously high tolerance for the abuse they'll take.
International Civil Aviation Organisation has officially found Russia responsible for downing of MH17
Well well well, I’m gonna put on the kettle and get the popcorn and bingo card ready as the usual suspects gonna have a hard time trying to spin this latest news as anything positive for mother Russia
Downed Russian drone with “No peace” on wing
There are several including this one: Russian-Ukrainian Friendship Treaty
what are the chances of donnie,putin and President Zelenskyy having a sit down meeting this week…?
Also evidence now of arson attack in a EU/NATO member by Russians
You gonna be disappointed yet again once Putin yet again refuses a ceasefire or even to meet to discuss a ceasefire
Why are these Russians so warmongering

over to Putin now…. And as I said yesterday, there’s not a hope he’s showing up.
Putin won't want to meet Zelensky directly as he doesn't want to give him equal status. Zelensky not being a legitimate elected leader etc.
Zelensky won't want to meet Putin as obviously he's a war criminal. But indeed he is willing to call his bluff.
If Putin will neither entertain talks nor a ceasefire, hopefully the penny will drop in Washington. Like, where else can you go if there cannot even be talks? No talks means no deal, as Trump constantly goes on about getting a deal…
Zelensky has been really crafty here though : says he wants to meet Putin face to face, meaning Trump can't criticise him (Zelensky) in any way.
Trump will cry that Zelensky is provocating poor Vlad by turning up in person to meet the RuZZian stooge.
well there will be some sort of talks; somebody will turn up representing Russia…Putin is a caany enough operator not to give gratuitous offense in that way…
In the unlikely event that Putin does show up, Zelensky should cough into his hand and then offer to shake.
Or do the “my heart goes out to you” wave.
I would have thought the chances of an attempted poisoning of Zelensky would be high. He's brave indeed to offer to meet the evil bastard.
It's definitely something Zelensky has considered. Worst case scenario and it does happen, he'd probably be counting on allies stepping up and/ir joining in. To what degree I haven't a clue
send in the Jovial Putin double
I wonder what would be the chances of planting something on Putin?

This is the area around the Russian embassy in Prague.The embassy itself is on
#Ukrainian Heroes Street.
LOL!
I can't under any circumstance see Putin agreeing to a 30 day ceasefire when it's prime time for a summer offensive. When it inevitably restarts after 30 days they'll have missed out on a month of perfect attacking conditions.
Smart from Zelenski to offer the cease-fire now. I wouldn't be surprised if that weasel Putin offers it come the mud season.
I think there might be a suprise yet ,too much of a coincidense, Trump is an hour away ,any negotiations would have happened already behind the scenes for months, the big cheese always turn up for what a hundred people have worked hard for to claim the glory.
Well, he might agree to a ceasefire, but not cease any firing.
When there's something in the pipeline, Trump just can't help himself and always gives the media a heads up days in advance. And the announcement, when it comes, is always an anticlimax. The most signficant thing we've seen or heard from him in respect of this war was the unexpected U-turn after meeting Zelenskyy in the Vatican (okay, more of a 120° turn than a 180°, but still … )
It feels like there are two distinct camps in the White House in this regard - the Kellogg camp and the Witkoff-Vance camp - with two different agendas, and each struggling to control the Trump mouth. Since the Oval Office ambush, I think the Europeans have got the full measure of what's going on and (finally…) got their own ducks in a line. I'd guess that Kellogg knows better than the other two how to effectively undermine political adversaries, and he and the European leaders are working proactively with Zelenskyy to manoeuvre Putin and Witkoff-Vance into a corner.
Putins war strategy since he came to power can be summed up in the following sentence. ‘ if you want to eat an elephant , then eat ‘a little bit’ at a time and you will eventually have it all eaten eventually’
Given the WIDE GAP between both parties is it not the strategy that the two ‘WARING’ parties are in different rooms and that the ‘discussion ‘ between them is facilitated by an ‘AGREED ‘ facilitator. ? Any American - including Trump - would be totally excluded if only because of comments Trump has made in the past. IMO , Trump should not be ‘next or near’ Istanbul.
If he attends he will act as a BIG BULLY by using his position as president of the most powerful country in the world; I have ALL the cards; Using his BIG ego and his ‘successfully used negotiating skills’!!!!!
