So President Trump spoke with War Criminal Putin. Only thing that Putin agreed too was a 30 day cessation of Russian attacks on energy and infrastructure. He even told President Trump that he just ordered no more attacks on Ukraine. Meanwhile, three hours later the Ukrainian City of Sloviansk was struck by Russian missiles throwing the population into darkness. Thats a new record for Putin. Hopefully Zelenskyy will return favor by hitting Russian refineries with Neptune long range missiles. I guess there goes that friendly match hockey game Russia vs USA. Apparently after Putin kept Witkoff waiting for 8 hrs, he did same with President Trump. Same time German Parliament approved 500B to rearm German wehrmacht vs coming War with Russia.
It's quite clear Trump's madman theory style of diplomacy is no longer feared. How will he respond to Putin delaying his call, to instead be interviewed at a convention? The host reminds him he's supposed to be on a call with Trump, he brushes it off, the host and audience laughs. Not to mention Trump's statement that a peace deal would likely involve "dividing up Ukraine's assets"
He didn't try to "normalize relations" and divide up Ukraine with an aggressive Russia. Serving Ukraine to Putin on a silver platter for short term political victories won't bring lasting peace.
In other words, Biden simply allowed soldiers on both sides to die brutal deaths instead of at least TRYING to end the bloody war.
I think its not a good thing for Americans to be divided over this process. Presently 2% of American support Putin 45% do not care 53% want Ukraine to defeat Russia Ben Hodges retired General makes most sense, US/ Europe/ Free World need to crush the Russian economy, so their war machine runs out of $$$. This will lead to Regime change. The Russian mentality has always been to be the bully, from Ivan the Terrible/ Peter I/ Katharina II/ Nicholas II/ Stalin/ Kruschev/ Andropov/ Putin. So its time for President Trump with the Worlds most powerfull military to dictate his terms to Putin, his polls would skyrocket. He does not need to let a thug like Putin to dictate terms. Trump has the opportunity to be a second Reagan and cause Russia to crumble. And yes, Obama screwed up royally when Russia annexed Crimea/ Biden when they launched unprovoked invasion in 2022. Putin only fears strenght, guess why Lavrov is so ticked off that Germany is rearming
Comrade Putin's ultimatum should be, "shoved up his you know what" Starmer today stated, we the (UK) and our Western Allies have decided, to do whatever it takes, that Ukraine prevails over Russia. To this end, we will provide training, weapons, money. Also, if a "ceasefire deal" is reached, we shall put boots on the ground, air power to patrol skies, we do not care if they (Russians) object. Man, its nice to finally have some backbone. Should have been done in 2014. Last night, Russians hit civilian targets, dangerous hospitals, apt. bldgs/ schools... Ukraine bullseye on Engels missile stockpiles, big KABOOM levelled bldgs 5 KMs away. Over 120 Cruise/ Hypersonic Missiles vaporized, 2 strategic nuclear bombers destroyed Also nailed two refineries. God will make sure Evil (Putin) is defeated.
