Vladimir Putin has demanded that Kyiv cede more land, withdraw troops deeper inside its own country, and drop its Nato bid in order for him to end Russia’s war in Ukraine.
Putin’s fresh ceasefire demands were issued as envoys from more than 90 countries, including Ukraine, convene in Switzerland this weekend to discuss a western-led peace plan. Russia is not invited to the conference and the president’s remarks on Friday were likely to have been timed as a spoiler to that summit.
Speaking with diplomats at the Russian foreign ministry, Putin publicly updated his terms for ending the war in Ukraine for the first time since he launched a full-scale invasion in February 2022, when he demanded regime change in Kyiv and the country’s “demilitarisation”.
The US defence secretary, Lloyd Austin, said Putin was in “no position” to make demands on Ukraine and could end the war he had started “today if he chose to do that.”
Though I fully agree with you, here is some food for thought:
If, IF, come November, trump gets elected, then that’s it. He will remove all money from Ukraine, he’ll give Putin free reign to invade Ukraine and he won’t criticize Putin if he just streams on to the baltics and then poland too.
Get the fuxk out of here, indeed, but I fear that soon Europe will have to go to war with Russia
Biden’s last act should be to give Ukraine a pile of nukes.
