Putin refuses to meet with Zelensky in Turkey

Except that’s blatantly false, as by the pathetic failure of the West to create any sort of significant resistance movement anywhere within Russia.

If Russia were ever to “collapse” the last order of the rocket forces would likely be to obliterate the West....which makes such a plan particularly dumb.
Russia is collapsing from within like it did not that long ago. You are going to be so sad when it happens. Putin is to blame and everyone knows it.

The West has been begging for that to happen— pathetically stupidly, as such a thing would leave thousand of nukes— for decades....

And Russia has fought off each and every attempt.

If the world actually operated on the principles of the Nuremberg Trials almost every American president and dozens of American generals and admirals since would have hung for war crimes.....

And everyone knows it.

Heck, America’s last big move was bombing a diplomatic party and throwing a tantrum when the host nation tried to kick the US out.
 
By telling Trump the truth about Putin which Trump did not like hearing that.


He was there to beg. He failed and was kicked out of the Oval Office


He has since found that Zelensky was 100% correct in saying Putin does not want peace and negotiating with him is futile


He was preemporily ordered by Trump to go to Turkey
 
LOL Sanctions have created great economic stress inside Russia and Putin is running out of money. Stricter sanctions will speed up the economic collapse of Russia that has become inevitable. Putin must withdraw his troops of face bankruptcy.
Stricter sanctions as in blowing up Russian refineries.

Gee, Ukraine attempting such attacks has failed miserably to stop them from being thrown back… again, and again, and again.

Which explains the present hysteria in the west. Why else are they so passionate on an unconditional ceasefire? The party that shrieks for ceasefires is generally the party on the ropes
 
Surprise suprise. Putin lied about wanting talks with Zelensky and is too much of a coward to fly to Istanbul. Putin does not want a ceasefire and does not want peace. Now we will see if Trump has the backbone to back up his words with action and finally places the sanctions on Russia he has threatened or is as feckless and weak as he usually appears to the world. Talk is cheap Donald, now is the time for action.


Putin has one goal, to swallow the Ukraine entirely. He has lied reapetly begining with the massing of Russian troops on the border. He has lied about cease fire agreements, peace talks, and his desire for end to the conflict.

Only a naive fool would believe Putin.

How much more proof does Trump need.

No the Ukrainians do that with their own drones. These are more banking sanctions and sanctions on Putin's shadow fleet of oil tankers. Hurting Putin in the pocketbook will save lives on both sides. No one seems to care about that.

LOL No they are the party who is not insane. Only an insane leader would send a million of his citizens to die for his own glory.

Russia has not suffered anywhere near a million KIA.
 
Sounds like a set up to me.👎

Do I need to quote Trump's threats to Zelenskyy and Putin if they should refuse to negotiate and implement a ceasefire?

To Putin, Trump was quite clear that Russia would face debilitating new sanctions on its energy and banking sectors, and he would arm Ukraine to the 9's.

Now, Trump provides Putin with yet another alibi.... Trump himself.

One can't help but come to the conclusion that the Trump administration will do whatever is necessary to tilt the outcome in Moscow's favor.

I hope he follows thru, but I have my doubts.

Unlike his relations with Zelenskyy (extortion via funding/weapons cutoffs), Trump has never forced Putin to do anything that would be inimical to Putin's grandoise designs on Ukraine.

Nice if you can get everyone on board. Failing that, blown up Cat Crackers can accomplish the same thing without the need for consensus.

Explain to me why a side at war that claims to be winning wants a ceasefire

LOL You sound like a Russian. They think war is the natural state of mankind. The rest of the world disagrees and believes a ceasefire is preferable to more dying. Putin is just doing this to eliminate a good part of his population. That leaves more cash for the oligarchs and him. He is doing a good job of that with Ukraine's help.

No one was begging for a invasion of Ukraine. Putin has destroyed his own nation with his stupid and useless war. This time we will not allow them to keep their nukes or all the other nations they hold captive.

Listen carefully. This is not rocket science. Why is a side that you claim ad infinitum is winning the war wants a ceasefire?

And your guy, like Bibi Netanyahu, wants war, because it is his only excuse to stay in power. He needs to be de-fanged without "peace" on his terms.

Because Ukrainians are not bloodthirsty Orcs like Russians are. Is that clear enough for you? My question to you is if Russia is winning why have they lost so much equipment that they need to attack on motorcycles and golf carts and use donkeys to supply the front lines? That sounds like a winning strategy to you?

So why is the EU moving heaven and earth for a ceasefire? Did something bad happen? In 2022 Big Boris from Magna Britannia stumped into the midst of Ukrainians negotiating with Russians and put a stop to it, ordering the Ukrainians to get back to the front. The European determination then was Russia must be destroyed. Then after the disastrous counteroffensive the determination weakened to Russia cannot be allowed to win. Now Europeans are now fighting for a ceasefire....

What happened?
 
Who didn't guess Putin would bitch out?
